Preparations are underway for the visit that President Erdogan will pay to Washington, DC on 13 November.

Activists from the American Rojava Centre for Democracy (ARCDEM) are organising a demonstration in front of the White House.

"It is time to stand together and oppose Erdogan's attack on Northern Syria, Rojava", writes the call on people to join the demonstration.

"Erdogan's plan of ethnic cleansing in Syria - underlined ARCDEM - has already displaced hundreds of thousands of Kurdish, Arab, Assyrian, Yazidi, Armenian & Christian peoples, killed thousands of people with many more wounded."



ARCDEM added: "The ethnically diverse, egalitarian, feminist, religiously inclusive, secular and democratic society that defeated ISIS in Syria needs help to resist Erdogan's mounting war crimes. Do not let him create ISIS 2.0. Women & men of the Syrian Democratic Forces, YPG & YPJ have courage but need more against Turkey's F-16s & Erdogan's proxy army of jihadists and mercenaries! As we saw in Afrin, a No Fly Zone is needed!"
