Peace Islands Institute. MJoTA 2014 v8n1 p0502
As a
non-profit that promotes mutual understanding through dialogue, Peace
Islands Institute (PII) echoes the trepidations expressed below by the
Alliance for Shared Values regarding the comments made by Turkey's Prime
Minister. Such politically motivated language undermines the
fundamental elements that foster peaceful coexistence - democracy and
the rule of law.
An
advocate of the fight against poverty and hunger, peace through
education, and interfaith and intercultural diversity, our Honorary
President, Mr. Fethullah Gulen, has always stood for democracy, human
rights and freedoms.
We
condemn the Prime Minister's unfounded demands and appeal to the
collective conscience to urge the Prime Minister to end his harassment
of law-abiding citizens.
