PKK replies to secret memo from Kurdistan Region rulers: “We will not lay down arms”

Ocalan believed to have called for PKK ceasefire

News and Comment by KT:

According to a secret memo obtained by KT, the Kurdistan Region’s two ruling parties have asked the  Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) to leave south Kurdistan territory, lay down their arms and cease the armed struggle.

The memo, sent to the PKK last week,  is further evidence of the burgeoning relationship between the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) and Turkey, which is evidently at the expense of the Kurds of north Kurdistan.

The PKK has sent a response to the Kurdistan Democratic Party stating : “We do not lay down any arms and we do not accept any border for Kurdistan. We can go anywhere we like. Nobody can stop us. The Turkish state respects you not because of what you are – it is is due to our pressure and our struggle that you are having a cordial relationship with the Turkish state”.

The memo was sent against the background of an intensification of the PKK’s struggle against the Turkish establishment and continuing, daily violence and repression in all the cities of north Kurdistan.

    To the US and Israel policy makers

    You know very well that Massoud Barzani and Jalal Talabani are losing support of majority of Kurdish people because they are involved in corruption.

    I believe the interest of the US, EU and Israel will be served best by making peace between PKK and Turkey instead of supporting Barzani and Talabani’s unjust practice in South Kurdistan.

    The entire Kurdish people’s revolts are possible because Kurds are not going to give in to Turkey’s aggression.

    PKK are in control of commerce gateway not Barzani and Talabani. Turkey’s war on PKK could ignite larger wars in the region. The war will hurt people of the region, which means more refuges to EU and economic problem for the US and Israel.

    Barzani will do anything to be King of Kurdistan. Kurdish people is different from Saudi Arabia people, they never going to accept Kings.

    Barzani alliance with Turkey and Talabani’s alliance with Iran are meaning more terrible for the US, EU and Israel interest in the region.

    The best solution is peace in Turkey through negotiation with PKK.

    PKK are accepting democratic system and rule of laws and they are anti corruption too. PKK can bring peace to that important part of the world.
    Stop supporting Barzania and Talabani’s corrupt and outdated dictatorship in Kurdistan. Kurdish people will hate the US, EU and Israel like Iranian people does because of the Shah’s dictatorship support in the past.

    I hope every Kurds who love peace for Kurdish people like I do, will write to ask the US, EU and Israeli policy makers to stop this wars waged by Turkey with the help of Barzani and Talabani dictatorship in Kurdistan.
