PKK Leader: Don't Make Fool of the Kurdish Nation
PKK leader Cemil Bayık declared that a permanent ceasefire from the Kurdistan Workers’ Party cannot be on the table until meetings with the group’s imprisoned leader are permitted by Ankara, Hurriyet Daily reports.
"No one can speak of a ceasefire or the peace process until the freedom of leader Apo [jailed PKK head Abdullah Öcalan] and free negotiation conditions are created. No one should make a fool of the Kurdish nation. The isolation in İmralı is a cause of war in itself." .
"Accordingly, all these must be realized for a consolidated ceasefire. Neither the Kurdish nation nor the [Kurdish] freedom movement will accept a new and special war government formed against the Kurdish nation, whoever the components of the coalition are," he added.
