Stop the devastation unleashed as a reaction to that "coup". Those you hunt down are your valuable citizens!

Turkey's academic community is a source of strength and quality for the Turkish community and beyond. Harming this community will only weaken the Turkish state.

Any restriction of academic freedom and interference with the normal criteria of scholarly merit is not only profoundly unjust, but will be a disaster for Turkey and its culture.

Philosophy and science started in what is now Turkey. Free universities are essential to critical public debate and democracy. Stop the harassments of Turkish academics!
