Kurdish protesters calling for the EU to do more in tackling ISIL stormed the European Parliament in Brussels on Tuesday.<br /><br />They staged a two-hour sit-in to protest the lack of Western action against the militant groups.<br /><br />Some MEPs met with the demonstrators, who chanted slogans and waved flags.<br /><br />“We came here to make ourselves to the whole world because no-body is listening to us,” one unnamed demonstrator told euronews.<br /><br />“No-one is opening their eyes to what is happening in Kobane. Innocent people, women, children are getting killed for no reason.”<br /><br />The protesters also said the Kurdistan Workers Party, or PKK, should be removed from the EU’s list of prescribed terrorist organisation.<br /><br />They left the elected assembly peacefully just after midday on Tuesday, chanting “Viva Kobane”.<br /><br />The demonstration mirrored a similar protest at the Dutch parliament in the Hague late on Monday.
