The insult of the PUK leader towards journalists is shameful, and the silence of the journalist’s colleagues is another shame. I expected a voice from within the PUK, or an institution to apologize, but they have been silenced.
In fact, if this is the way he talks to the outside world, imagine the way he talks to his comrades? Especially when he gets angry.
What would have happened if the head of the fourth branch of the KDP, Ari Harsin, had insulted a journalist of the PUK like that?
Solidarity among journalists is important. They must speak out without fear about the phenomenon of insulting journalists and their profession.
The silence of the journalist's colleagues, and the Sulaymaniyah branch of the PUK Journalists’ Syndicate, is terrible and sad, why let it reach this point? How can you defend the public interest if you cannot defend yourselves and each other?
Write. don't be afraid. This was an insult to the Syndicate and its members, to every journalist who respects his profession.
