NEWSDESK, — In an interview with Alternative magazine, Rezan Cawid a senior member of PJAK (Kurdistan’s Free Life Party) evaluated the recent Middle Eastern uprisings, role of the Kurds in them as well as the power-seeking tendencies of the Western powers.
Rezan Cawid the Coordination member of PJAK stated that the United States along with the other Western powers are among the major factors behind the Kurdish issue.
Although the current issue of the Kurds, observed Rezan Cawid, emanates from their strategies, they have shown in the present time that they are neither ready to recognise the existence of the Kurds, nor do they let the others to do so.
In regard to the ongoing Middle Eastern crisis Mr Cawid believes that after the downfalls of the dominant dynasties in Tunes, Egypt and Libya revolution did not occur due to the foreign interventions and the governments which came to power have not been able to meet their people’s demands.
In the evaluation of the Syrian crisis Mr Cawid remarked that the Syrian oppositions that are supported by Turkey as well as the Western powers have been derailed from their genuine path. Like the Baath government their opposite side, they have been engaged in massacres and bloodshed, he added.
In relation to the direction of the Kurds in Syria and West Kurdistan, Mr Cawid said, the Kurdish people in West Kurdistan had been subjected to drastic oppressions by the Syrian government. Nevertheless, the Syrian opposition sponsored by Turkey is setting the red line for the Kurds and claim that there is no such a thing as the Kurdish issue.
For this reason, continued Mr Cawid, the Kurds could neither align themselves with the Western front, neither with the Baath government. Hence, they developed their own independent way, he added.
Kurds however did not adopt the third way only due to these equations, evaluated Mr Cawid and continued; it was due to ideological, political and philosophical paradigm advocated by Leader Apo which in known as the third way in the region; an independent line upon which the Kurds have become a powerful player in the Syrian crisis, he ended.
