In August 2015, Turkey accused the British broadcaster, the BBC of supporting terrorism following a report by the organization on women from the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) who are fighting the Islamic State. In light of this issue, this paper examines the groups to which Turkey has given support, but which are considered to be terrorist organizations by Egypt, Israel, the US, the EU and China. The author also makes the argument that before it accuses others of supporting terrorism, Turkey should reconsider its own behavior towards groups deemed to be terrorists by other countries.
