The first part of this interview can be read here and the second here.

Founded on 27 November 1978, the PKK is about to leave 46 years behind and is about to enter its 47th year. What would you like to say on the occasion of the approaching 46th anniversary of the PKK?

27 November is the day of our resurrection, the day when Rêber Apo [Abdullah Öcalan]'s ideas and thoughts of 1973 were transformed into a party and a program in 1978 and made known to society. I congratulate Rêber Apo on this sacred day. We are grateful to Rêber Apo for giving us and our people these ideas, thoughts, and honor. I wish a happy 27 November to all mothers, women, our people, and our international friends who are struggling for the physical freedom, health, and security of Rêber Apo. The truth of Rêber Apo has emerged in the PKK and PAJK. It has emerged in the militancy of the PKK and PAJK. In the 21st century, humanity needs Rêber Apo very much. Because Rêber Apo is the vein of resistance, the vein of struggle. It is Rêber Apo, the system he created, the Democratic Confederalism, that represents women’s freedom, the freedom of all living beings, the freedom of nature, and the struggle for it. And the PKK and PAJK are the pioneers of this.

On the 46th anniversary of our party, we must embrace the achieved values even more. As the party of martyrs, the PKK is much stronger than ever. It has militants like comrade Asya and Rojger, like Memed Cudi, like Berwar. The party of martyrs is growing day by day. We are experiencing enthusiasm and morale on the occasion of the approaching anniversary of the founding of our party. The upcoming year will be the year of building the system of Democratic Confederalism. The PKK today is the hope of all the oppressed. I call on all our people, women and young people. The upcoming year we must celebrate the anniversary of our party more enthusiastically than ever before. We must unite around Rêber Apo. This is the call of comrades Asya and Rojger. In this spirit, our people should participate in all actions in the coming period.

A massive action is going to take place in Cologne, Germany on November 16th. It must be used as an opportunity to pass on the message sent by Rêber Apo to millions. Therefore, I call on all our people in Europe, especially our people in Germany, the Êzidî community, the Alevi community, the youth, women, our international friends who have worked so hard for Rêber Apo’s physical freedom in this period, to flock to Cologne with the enthusiasm and morale of the anniversary of the founding of the PKK and show the whole world that we do not tolerate one more hour in which the isolation of Rêber Apo continues. I believe that our people are making their preparations and will participate in the demonstration in this spirit. I send my greetings and love to everyone who will participate in the demonstration and wish them great success.
