12 Turkish Origin Candidates to Run in Nov. 22 Dutch Elections

Twelve candidates of Turkish origin from seven different parties will run in the upcoming elections in the Netherlands. In September, three Turkish candidates had been previously expelled from their parties because of their refusal to accept recognition of an Armenian genocide.

The Turkish origin candidates are running for the Christian Democrats (CDA), the Labor Party (PvdA), Democrat 66 party (D'66), Liberal Party (VVD) and several smaller right-wing parties.
