She explained that forming a committee to investigate crimes and violations that have occurred and take place in the areas of the Turkey's occupation, halting of the demographic change and return of the displaced to all their areas are positive decisions that must be initiated and worked on, implemented and shared with public opinion."   "Of course this decision is bold, and if the Council holds its responsibility, we urge it to go on this work," she said. " It is well-known that the party that caused these violations cannot show the real results about what had happened  and is happening today, "Starting an investigation with international supervision is very important."   "We call on the Council to be careful about the policies of the coalition and Turkey, which are working to change the  region demographics through the displacement of indigenous people and the settlement of mercenary families in the region.  The Council should holds its responsibilities in this regard." In order not to be a part of  a decision he has not taken."   'TURKEY IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE VIOLATIONS    Ilham explained that everything that happens in the occupied areas is the responsibility of the parties supporting the extremist factions. She stressed: 'The Turkish side is primarily responsible for all the violations that occur from these groups and factions in the occupied areas, "Turkey is the sponsor and supporter of these radical groups, and therefore, it takes full responsibility for the violations that are taking place there."
