The ongoing hunger strikes are just a show, Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said during a joint press conference with German Chancellor Angela Merkel on October 31, Hurriyet reports.
"There are no hunger strikes," Erdoğan said. "My minister went over there and observed them. It's a complete show. Half of them already gave up. All our health personnel are there [now] to help the rest."
"You can not destroy law anywhere in the world with such shows," Erdoğan said.
