Hakan Fidan to meet Ocalan

The chief of Turkey Intelligence Organization (MIT), Hakan Fidan, is to accompany the pro-Kurdish Peoples’ Democratic Party (HDP) delegation in its visit to Imrali Island to meet the jailed leader of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK), Abdullah Ocalan.

According to Haber7 the HDP delegation met Fidan after returning from Qandil Mountains where they met PKK leading officials in line with the peace process between the party and Ankara. Fidan and the HDP delegation studied the so-called “road map” within the peace process. The delegation was planned to meet deputy PM Yalcin Akdogan but had a meeting with Fidan instead.The two sides are to make a visit to Imrali in the upcoming days to meet Ocalan and discuss Ocalan’s 66-article draft for the peace settlement. The HDP was to reveal the content of the draft but it changed course after Turkish PM Ahmet Davutoglu warned about media reaction and sensitivities to the issue. Kurdpess 14 Dec 2014
