While the new penal law on the fight against terrorism entered into force in Sweden yesterday, supporters of the terrorist organization PKK/YPG continue their activities such as collecting money or organizing demonstrations in the country.
Swedish state radio is also broadcasting an interview with one of the ringleaders of the organization.
Supporters of the terrorist organization PKK/YPG, which call themselves the "Rojova Committee", will hold a demonstration in the capital Stockholm on June 4.
The supporters of the organization are also calling for the removal of cloth pieces symbolizing the organization on social media.
Swedish Foreign Minister Tobias Bilström told state television SVT, "These people want to sabotage Sweden's entry into NATO. Even though this show is legal, it's not a good fit for us," he said.
Billström argued that holding this demonstration would not affect Turkey's NATO decision.
Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson told TT agency, "I think it's unfortunate that a small group did everything they could to sabotage Sweden's accession to NATO," he said.
A group of supporters of a terrorist organization ended their campaign to help the organization, which they had been running for a month, at 00.00 local time last night before the new penal law came into effect.
His interview with Sabri Ok, one of the ringleaders of the terrorist organization PKK/YPG, was broadcast on the Swedish state radio SR.
While Ok was being described as "one of the top executives of the PKK/YPG" on the radio, the terrorist organization's ringleader claimed that the Swedish authorities "lied about the organization to look cute to Turkey".
