Ankara, March 18, 2016 (AFP) — Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Friday called on European countries to stop supporting the outlawed Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) days after a bombing claimed by Kurdish rebels that killed 35 people.

Erdogan said there was no reason European cities would be spared the kind of attacks that Turkey has suffered, adding: "Despite this clear reality, European countries are paying no attention, as if they are dancing in a minefield."
