HEWLER, Southern Kurdistan, — Turkish endeavour for the liquidation of Kurdish resistance movement spearheaded by the Kurdistan Worker Party (PKK) crosses all sorts of boundaries including territorial as well as moral ones.
The Turkish Authorities have provided a list of 248 Kurdish activists abroad and requested The US, the EU, Iraqi and the Kurdish authorities in Southern Kurdistan to arrest and hand them over to Turkey.
Mr. Cebar Yawer the deputy ministry of Peshmerga, Kurdish Special Forces, reiterated that the most wanted PKK members that pointed by Turkey are not in Kurdistan region. “The 248 activists from the PKK that have been requested by Turkey are not in Kurdistan region, the Kurdistan region has not associate with the PKK issue” Yawer said to al-Hayat
“We have already made it clear that no PKK fighter exist in Kurdistan, while Turkey calls on us to extradite them. The Turkish government is firstly responsible, because all the operations is happened inside Turkey and Kurdistan region is away from it,” Yawer said.
He also strongly deny of having tripartite agreement among U.S., Turkey and Iraq to attack the PKK. Since 1984, Turkey has launched 24 ground raids into the Iraqi territories but none of them neither got the goal nor was successful, he clarified.
