On Sunday, dozens of Kurdish people and pro-Kurdish activists gathered in Germany's eastern city of Dresden to pay tribute to the victims of Saturday's blasts, which claimed the lives of at least 95 people and injured 245 others.
Carrying pictures of the victims of the attack, the marchers held the government of Turkish President Reccep Tayyip Erdogan accountable for the tragedy.
The protesters were chanting slogans against Erdogan, holding banners that labeled the Turkish president a terrorist.
Also on Sunday, pro-Kurdish activists held a similar rally in the German city of Leipzig to show their solidarity with the victims of the Saturday twin bombings in Ankara.
Leipzig protesters, who were holding signs in condemnation of Erdogan, blamed Turkish authorities for the deadly bombings.
They also called for a new government in Turkey and an end to acts of violence against Kurdish people.

Waving Kurdish flags and chanting anti-Erdogan slogans, the pro-Kurdish activists marched from the Republique plaza in central Paris toward the Seine River.
The protesters slammed the Turkish government for the deadly blasts that targeted activists who had gathered outside Ankara's main train station for a peace rally organized by leftist pro-Kurdish opposition groups.
Turkey has been engaged in one of its biggest security operations in the southern border region in the recent past months. The Turkish military has been conducting offensives against alleged positions of the Daesh Takfiri terrorists in northern Syria as well as those of the the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK)in northern Iraq and southeastern Turkey. The security operations began in the wake of a Daesh bombing on July 20 in the town of Suruc, in southern Turkey, that killed scores of people.
PKK has been fighting the Turkish government for anautonomous region in the country's southeast.
