KCK: We will not accept any attitude lacking concrete steps
A delegation of the HDP (Peoples' Democratic Party) has issued a written statement after returning from Kandil where they held a meeting with KCK (Kurdistan Communities Union) executives as part of the democratic resolution process launched with the initiative of Kurdish people's leader Abdullah Öcalan in March 2013.
The delegation, made up of HDP Group Deputy Chairs Pervin Buldan and İdris Baluken and HDP Deputy Co-President Sırrı Süreyya Önder, conveyed the details of yesterday's meeting with KCK executives which lasted seven hours.
The HDP delegation said the meeting witnessed a detailed assessment of the developments in Rojava and the Middle East, the resolution process and Kobanê being in the first place, works for the National Congress, the AKP's approach towards the resolution process and Kobanê protests, and its policy on Rojava.
The delegation also conveyed the road map draft -submitted to them as a result of talks in Ankara- to the KCK executives who-it said- stated that the AKP continues to maintain its delaying tactics regarding the resolution process, is yet to establish mechanisms for advancement of the talks to negotiations, and has still not undergone a change in its policies in this regard despite all the calls made by the Kurdish movement and democratic circles.
KCK executives warned that "the Kurdish movement and people will not accept any attitude not shaped by concrete steps", while also stressing that in the event that the process advances to negotiations, they will maintain the positive approach they have manifested until today since the beginning of the process launched by the Kurdish people's leader.
The HDP delegation said the KCK executives underlined that the civil resistance led by the YPG and YPJ in Kobanê is continuing in a course to lead up to historic results, and that the uprising of the people in Kurdistan and their intervention in the Kobanê process has been one of the most significant developments giving strength to the resistance.
The KCK executives also said it was vital to continue to follow the situation in Kobanê with great sensitivity, and remarked that the concept aiming to eliminate the gains of the Kurdish people over the Rojava revolution remains in effect.
According to the delegation, KCK executives put emphasis on the importance of the National Congress whose importance has once again manifested itself within such a process, and called for sensitivity from all Kurdish parties and organizations in the current process when the ground for the National Congress is getting stronger.
KCK executives also pointed out that the AKP hasn't undergone any change its attitude in face of the support it has provided to ISIS gangs since the beginning of the siege of Kobanê, as has also been revealed by the international community.
The delegation said; "Executives of the KCK stated that the AKP is not even allowing a corridor to prevent a probable massacre in Kobanê where the Kurdish people remain under the threat of an imminent mass killing, and is on the other hand considering the PKK and ISIS equal and bringing the anger of the people to boiling point by saying that 'Kobanê is about to fall'. They remarked the AKP hindered the development of a solution through these remarks and policies, and that the people have exposed these policies of the AKP government to the whole world by adopting the stance of uprising."
The KCK executives -the delegation said- also pointed out that the loss of lives during Kobanê protests and all the developments that followed it were a consequence of the AKP government's policies and repressive implementations not serving a solution.
According to KCK executives, the wave of detentions and arrests coming in wake of Kobanê protests also gives an idea about the AKP government's approach.
Remarking that KCK executives strongly objected to the new law package of the government, the delegation conveying the following opinions highlighted by KCK officials in this regard; "It should be known well that the Kurdish people and democracy powers will give the necessary democratic struggle in the event of enactment of this law, which gives police further authorities and aims to suppress the public opposition under the cover up 'probable suspect' concept, in a process which is witnessing a debate regarding the abolition of the anti-terror law and enactment of laws serving the resolution of the Kurdish question."
KCK executives said all circles defending democracy should struggle against the AKP government's policies delaying a resolution, and called for sensitivity in this regard from all those siding with peace.
