and i should make clear that in the raising of the occupy wall street and
it's across the country i don't believe that a protesters were killed but also
was
tremendous houston police brutality and and western
governments developed governments that that week that we like to think of
often have difficulty and
trading a balance between ari people's rights and i had to settle freely and
clearing out public spaces
so turkey this is nothing like again nothing like any of the revolts
and the violent suppression that is current any of the
arab countries throughout this period things like what occurred in minister by
towards a magnitude
nothing like that they do it
internationally recognized free elections
and wall that there may have been some recent
crackdowns on on some their civic institutions including the press
they they do have a vibrant
press they do have a by record system
and i just i think that that needs to be made clear call you on the stones as
well i mean helen's prospect and wanting to take your wish that turkey and
looking at uh... the press room ranking turkey has a very loud
ranking and i've been covering two hundred fifty fourth
so this is one of them for major driving five well you mean obviously should
avoid comparisons to because of his on libya in egypt budge is important to
point that out
also on the point out mimi you're talking about the crackdown that's going
on right now and i cant literally the crack as happening right now you let
working people fall of the world citizen locals as i really recommend a
translator got occupied ezi
odds that act by his national youth leaders and you can fall is happening
right now on the right place of don in there for the first time in eighteen
days it is actually a major development
uh... miles remember reading as well that the public sector union federation
the same a confederation and went on strike
i think was last week said that if the police went in and they're gonna go on
another strike again so they can see how this all plays out uh... whether or not
this crackdown means that the kind of movement and a fizzle out or they're
receiving a stronger are pushed back with organized labor i was the proudest
moment so i'll be there and i think you find that that strike you current it was
actually of the four major turkish labor federations
it was to the two of the four there were smaller representing roughly
some six six hundred the seven hundred thousand workers all want also to one
private sector
and of course the venerable our tradition that is known for the
militancy
treaties which represents truck drivers in turkey
uh... as and more than a year long strike against d_h_l_ determine trucking
company
uh... has not i've gone on strike and and and solidarity yet so that may be
something that we're gonna motive for turnkey sign there
