Ocalan sent no letter to Barzani: Karayilan

NOT ONE LETTER TO ONE – BUT ONE LETTER FOR THREE

Kurdpress 23.6.2013 – The Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) land commander Murat Karayilan rejected the party’s jailed leader Abdullah Ocalan has sent a letter to Kurdistan Region President Massoud Barzani. Karayilan didn’t mention the content of this letter.

Speaking to Firat news agency, Karayilan denied Ocalan has sent a letter to Barzani, adding that the PKK leader has only appreciated Barzani, Iraqi president Jalal Talabani, Change Movement leader Nawshirwan Mustafa and Kurdish Regional Government Nechirvan Barzani in a letter Ocalan delivered to a delegation of Turkey pro- Kurdish Peace and Democracy Party (BDP). Karayilan further added he has frequently met Barzani and discussed different issues but has failed to take a united stance toward the civil war in the war-torn country.
