"Nobody should be deceived by the AKP’s tricks. The approach of the state is much more positive than the AKP government" said imprisoned leader of PKK Abdullah Öcalan.
"Nobody should be deceived by the AKP’s tricks. The approach of the state is much more positive than the AKP government" said imprisoned leader of PKK Abdullah Öcalan.
He also stated that the meetings held with him are getting more serious. “We have not reached the negotiation phase yet but the current situation can be named as transition period. However, the government together with the opposition parties CHP and MHP are delivering speeches which are obstructing the solution. The oligarchic power, day-politics will destroy the state. AKP aims at creating its own Hamas.” added Öcalan.
KCK case is a plot
The lawyers of the Kurdish Leader Abdullah Öcalan visited him in Imrali prison.
Regarding the KCK cases Öcalan said “The case is a plot. Some groups within the state wanted to take politicians like Hatip Dicle and Fırat Anlı as hostage so that they could get rid of so called hardliners but it did not work. On one hand they were trying to string me along and on the other hand they were trying to purge KCK.
CHP must change
Öcalan also said that it is the time for CHP to change and update Kemalism according to our era otherwise they will lose. He also warned the CHP leader Kılıçdaroğlu to become aware of the situation and understand that it is his last chance to destroy the Ataturk myth which does not represent Kemalism. Öcalan also reminded the Kurdish Autonomy Law passed in the parliament in 1922 when Ataturk was still alive.
Green Turks replaced white Turks
Öcalan said: “After 2000s green Turks replaced white Turks. AKP is representing green Turkish nationalism. It is supported by the US and the UK and they receive enormous amount of financial support from abroad. They are criticised with being civil dictator and this critique is not unfair. Gulen Community have schools in South Kurdistan where Talabani’s grand children study. These are not coincidences. They are getting organised in the Kurdish region. They used to use weapons before but now other methods. What they do is creating disarmed Hizbullah. Zaman newspaper is also serving them, very obvious. They are using Islam for their political aims and it can be really dangerour”
Öcalan also stated that AKP wants to create its own Hamas but even the PM himself cannot imagine how it will affect the region. “He himself will not be able to control them. We have seen what happened in Palestine, how they got the power from Al Fatih. The Kurds should not let this happen and develop their own understating of Islam and not let it be used for politics.” added Öcalan.
Meetings with state officials
Öcalan continued: “My meetings with state officials are continuing. We have not reached the negotiation phase yet but the current situation can be named as transition period. The officials with whom I am meeting are genuine and serious. However, the government together with the opposition parties CHP and MHP are delivering speeches which are obstructing the solution. The oligarchic power, day-politics will destroy the state. We are supporting an ideology-free state.” Öcalan also reiterated that they are not in favour of a federal state and they want to live together with Turkey as long as they the Kurdish rights are recognised.
Meanwhile Öcalan reiterated that a Truth Commission established within the parliament can help the solution. Both the state party and the PKK can cooperate with this commission.
Women should emancipate themselves
Focusing on the gender issue Öcalan said it was not a coincidence that the mayor of Rize suggested marrying Kurdish women as second wife in order to solve the Kurdish problem and this is a clear reflection of assimilation policy. Öcalan also said that the pressure faced by women drag them into suicide but the women should emancipate themselves and get organised.
