PKK will one day turn their guns on countries backing them today: Erdogan

"The countries that directly or indirectly support the terrorist organization's acts will one day face that gun themselves," he said in Ankara on Saturday.

Erdogan also stated that no demand would ever be achieved through guns and violence.

    "The path of terror, violence, and weapons has ended… It is now understood that nothing can be gained from those methods. They are not trying to help my Kurdish brothers. If that were the case, they would not have hurled Molotov cocktails at schools when our children were inside," he said.


"They pledge blood," the Turkish prime minister added.

The PKK has been fighting for an autonomous Kurdish region inside Turkey since the 1980s. The conflict has left tens of thousands of people dead.
