MESOP : THE APO-CRITICAL OFFENSIVE STARTS – SABRI OK (PKK) ‘We will NOT lay down arms! & we will not even debate it!”’
23. November 2014 KDN – Kurdish Daily News – Sabri Ok, one of PKK’s leading figures in Qandil mountains, said that the PKK will not give up its armed struggle against Turkey as long as their leader Ocalan is imprisoned and the Kurds are subject to discrimination in Turkey.
Speaking to Kurdish News Agency ANF in Qandil region, Ok said that AKP government in Turkey has been trying to buy time since the failed Oslo talks and has no plan regarding recognition of Kurdish identity and Kurdish language. “Turkish security forces operate in Kurdistan, arrest Kurds, build new army posts and the government increases its police and military force in the region while we discuss a democratic and honorable solution to Kurdish problem in Turkey. This is not acceptable in any way. The PKK will not debate to end its armed struggle against Turkey” he said. http://kurdishdailynews.org/2014/11/23/sabri-ok-we-will-not-lay-down-our-arms/
