    3. Countries should stop attempts to open representative offices of Kurds in their countries;

    4. To prevent the activities of FETO and close the media affiliated with the organization;

    5. Comply with the requirements to freeze the assets of organizations associated with terrorism;

    6. Fulfill the requirements for the extradition of persons associated with terrorism;
