PKK'S ELECTIONS IN SYRIA POSTPONED BUT NO CANCELLATION DECISION ISSUED

Ministry sources said the following regarding the so-called local elections that the terrorist organization PKK/PYD/YPG/SDF planned to hold in northern Syria and announced they had postponed:

"Our President and our Minister had previously made the necessary warnings regarding the non-holding of these elections. We had warned that these so-called elections should be completely canceled rather than postponed.

We reiterate our warning that they should be completely canceled, not postponed."
