BEHDINAN – Noting that the Turkish state has not been able to occupy the Media Defense Areas for two years, despite the consent of the Kazımi government in Iraq and the active support of the KDP, despite all modern technology, banned bombs and chemical weapons, PKK Executive Committee Member Murat Karayılan said, “This is unsuccessful. This is certain. This is a clear result. Therefore, the first move of the AKP-MHP regime’s plan to reach the borders of the National Pact could not be realized. This plan hit the indestructible wall of the Kurdistan Freedom Guerrilla.”
The second part of our conversation with PKK Executive Committee Member and People’s Defense Central Headquarters Commander Murat Karayılan is as follows:
You and the Turkish side announced the annual balance sheets of the ongoing war. The Turkish Ministry of Defense has both falsified figures and denied the use of chemical weapons. What is the situation in war?
First of all, we had great and valuable martyrdoms during the year. We honor all our martyrs who became martyrs in 2022, dear commanders Rêzan Amed, Nuri Yekta, Mizgîn Ronahî, Bager Gever, Avzem Çiya, Fedai Kobanî, Helbest Koçer, Doğan Jirkî, Zemani Rojhat, Güven Doza, Mahir Mazlum, Ronahî Devrim, Aso Diren, Harun I commemorate Sirnex, Cûdî Colemêrg and Evîndar Kevok in the person of comrades, and I would like to emphasize that we will abide by the promise we made to them and that we are determined to keep their memories alive in the free Leadership, free Kurdistan march.
Yes, our Command has announced our annual balance sheet. At the various meetings we held in 2022 at the beginning of the year, we had already determined that 2022 would be a very important year for our struggle. Now we have left 2022 behind. The developments have confirmed our findings made at the beginning of the year. Indeed, 2022 was experienced as an important year of resistance, war and struggle.
As HPG, we have a balance sheet published for the year. In this respect, I will not go into topics such as ‘So many soldiers died this year, so many actions were taken’. There is no need for them. In the annual balance sheet, everything is clearly, clearly and broadly stated. We can give full assurance about the accuracy of our balance sheet. Maybe there may be differences in enemy losses that cannot be determined with certain lines. Again, except for some unclear and investigated cases, the figures are exactly as they are reflected in the balance sheet. In other words, our martyrdoms and other results obtained are as written in the balance sheet. We evaluate the year and its results in an understated and modest way.
The AKP-MHP regime wanted to achieve in 2022 what it could not do in 2021. It completely occupied the Zap, Avaşîn and Metîna areas in two to three weeks and invaded Garê, Kandil, Şengal, etc. He had planned to complete his attack and siege plans in a few months. This plan of the AKP-MHP regime was stuck in the Zap and was blocked. They named this operation ‘Claw-Lock’, but they were locked in Zap. This is a clear reality that everyone can see.
The Turkish state, with the consent of the Kazimi government in Iraq and the active support of the KDP, was unable to occupy the Media Defense Areas in this war, which it has been waging with all modern technology, banned bombs and chemical weapons. This is unsuccessful. This is a definite and clear result. Therefore, the first move of the AKP-MHP regime’s plan to reach the borders of the National Pact could not be realized. This plan hit the indestructible wall of the Kurdistan Freedom Guerrilla.
Turkish officials say that they will end the guerrilla in Northern Kurdistan, and even give figures. Why do they say that, is it really possible?
Turkish special war ministers and officials have been carrying out thousands of operations almost every year for 6-7 years, promising to say ‘We will not leave a single guerrilla in the North this year, we will finish it’. In 2022, they carried out operations in Northern Kurdistan, the number of which approached tens of thousands, but they could not reach their goal. TRUE; we have lost in some places, but the Turkish state is not successful here either. It is clear that they could not achieve the desired results in the face of the determination, will and tactical maneuvering of the Apoist guerrilla despite such enormous power, possibilities and possibilities. This resistance of the guerrilla, the resistance of Imrali and its prisons against all oppression, the resistance of our people and the resisting attitude of the democratic politics made the AKP-MHP regime unsuccessful in Kurdish politics.
The information presented to the public by the Turkish war minister is not true, it is a distortion of the facts. He claims that more than 4,000 of our guerrillas have been martyred in the last year. This is absolutely not true. As HPG and YJA Star, our total number of martyrs in 2022 is 301 comrades. Of course, they (the Turkish state) combine us and the SDF to give numbers. It’s also a matter of distortion. As far as we know, the figures he gave for the SDF are also unrealistic. SDF General Command has made statements that these are not true many times. Since the Turkish state tells these lies every day, they are tired of answering every day. We know that the information given by this war minister, especially regarding the Rojava area, has nothing to do with reality. The losses of the Turkish army and other security forces are 10 times our losses. So our losses are one-tenth of theirs. Such is the truth!
Hulusi Akar also made some statements about ‘The Claw-Lock operation has been completed’. He said words that meant that the targeted or all the places that needed to be occupied were occupied. This is absolutely not true, it is a distortion. They couldn’t take every place they targeted. Today, there are still conflicts in the Zap and the Turkish army is trying to get out of the situation it was in. This is essentially the case with Zap. I want to ask some questions about this.
Who is the addressee of your questions?
I ask the Turkish Defense Minister Hulusi Akar;
- Since you are successful, what do you say about the funerals of soldiers still in the hands of the guerrilla, what is your explanation on this issue?
- If you are so successful and dominant, why did you order the soldiers to close their bodies on September 11, 2022, so that they would not fall into the hands of the guerrilla? While the soldiers were being burned, our guerrillas who were nearby captured and published the images of these soldiers. I wonder, what do you say about these images?
- If you have completed the ‘Lock’, why did you withdraw from Girê Cûdî, Sêdarê and Girê Amediyê? In fact, you have come to seize and base them all permanently. However, west of the Zap, your power now only has two points. How do you explain this? How do you explain that you are trying to stay in only two parts of this space that you came to occupy all of?
- Your position west of the Zap is a complete defeat. How will you cover up this defeat that is in plain sight? Let’s say you are an authority and you have the power to apply pressure, you can influence and silence all your media circles in Turkey by relying on the ‘national army’ discourse. So how will you cover up all these situations tomorrow? You have to admit the smackdown west of the Zap.
- You announced that you have completed the Claw-Lock operation. So, how would you explain the violent clashes that continue in the land of Sîda and Çemço villages of Şêladize sub-district east of Zap? How will you explain to the people of Turkey and the public that you could not complete the invasion, although you constantly used tanks, cannons, planes, all kinds of banned weapons and disgraceful chemical weapons in order to reach an early conclusion here? Now you hide the great conflicts with all weapons there. Bravo to you, you have the power to have all the media in your hands, but how long will you be able to hide it?
- What does it have to do with your personal psychology when you say the opposite in the Turkish Parliament on the day you gave the order to use more effective and intense chemical weapons? What kind of personality structure can be explained by giving instructions for using chemicals in the morning and expressing the opposite in front of the public at noon? How would you explain such a contrast between your words and actions? The fact that you went down in history as Turkey’s ‘Chemical Hulusi’ alongside Iraq’s ‘Chemical Ali’ is a product of what trait in your personality?
- You, together with Tayyip Erdoğan, have caused the deaths of 2,800 Turkish people’s sons in the last 8 and a half months, with imaginary planning and wrong war tactics, just for the sake of maintaining your power. Have you ever done any reconciliation against it? What effect did killing so many people have on you?
Can you answer them?
If he has a heart, I urge the public to respond to them and prove the opposite. He cannot prove the contrary, because they are all truths.
I call them; Relying on the F16s, SİHAs and banned weapons in your possession, you have driven the sons of the Turkish people against our forces in a way that cannot be explained by science. You said “go die or get it”. So you caused the deaths of those young people. You can’t get rid of this plague.
Not only did you use chemicals, you even violently suppressed those who wanted to be investigated, you made arrests. Then, without embarrassment, state that you ‘formed a committee yourself, had research done and made it clear that it was clean, that is, chemicals were not used’. What a bulge is this! Even crows laugh at this! If you have an iota of truth in what you say and a little sense of responsibility towards the public, here is the asphalt road coming to the village of Sîda, where the conflicts are taking place. This village is 8-9 km away from Sheladize township. You and your partner KDP make way for independent committees to come and do research. If what you say is true, let them prove your truth. You and your partner KDP cannot cover up the facts to the fullest, yet you cannot leave independent committees in this field. because if you let go, your deception and war crimes against international law will be exposed. You cannot hide forever how you murdered 11 brave and distinguished sons of the Kurdish people in the village of Saca, which is close to Sîda. This will definitely be revealed and your true face will be revealed to the whole world, and you will not be able to escape from being held to account. It’s best that you confess the truth now. I recommend this to you.
Could you give some more information about where and how the 11 guerrillas you mentioned were martyred?
First of all, I pay tribute and gratitude to the comrades Ferman Kerim, Jînda Serhat, Sabri Cilo, Arvîn Tolhildan, Azad Pirsûs, Adar Çiya, Hêvî Welat, Sefkan Adar, Dilşêr Reqa, Helmet Viyan and Harun Fırat, who fought heroically in the Martyr Xursi war tunnel around the Saca village and became martyrs. I remember. They were the bravest, most honest and heroic people of the people of Kurdistan who devoted themselves unwaveringly to their people. They are our heroes. Thanks to the great resistance of those heroes, we exist at this level today and are able to speak. They were young and young, but big in heart. They are great people who are equipped with an Apoist self-sacrificing spirit, who fight with love in the line of the Leader, and who do not blink for a moment in sacrificing themselves. We owe them. All of our people should never forget these distinguished children. Filtered out of this society, the simplest, the bravest, the most talented,
These comrades are gathered in a single room in the Martyr Xursi war tunnel to protect themselves from chemicals. All of them were martyred in a single room, without any bullets touching their bodies, that is, without injury. Our friends who went to the scene later took pictures of these martyrs. Images can also be published when necessary in the future. None of these friends were touched by any bullets or bomb fragments. Our friends were completely martyred by chemical gas. Hulusi Akar, Tayyip Erdoğan and Devlet Bahçeli cannot cover up this brutal crime they have committed. Maybe they manage to hide it today, but tomorrow they will not be able to cover it. As a state, you have so much modern technology at your disposal; Instead of fighting it, you are using inhumane weapons prohibited by international law. You are murdering by using banned and lethal gas against the sons of the Kurdish people. Do you think this will not be accounted for? You will be asked to account for this. As long as this people and their children live, these brutal practices that you have done will not be held accountable, sooner or later, but you will definitely be asked.
In one of your interviews, you used the phrase “these soldiers either leave or they all die”, referring to the soldiers in Amediyê. What was the meaning of this word and why did you use such a word? After this, the Turkish army retreated from many parts of Amediyê.
Yes, I used such a phrase in a TV show. We say what we believe. We are people who are committed to our word and aim to achieve the highest level of honesty, especially in front of our people and the public. We have no other aim than to fight and serve the cause of freedom of our people. Therefore, our measurement; honesty, honesty, courage and openness. We, as Movement management, express what we can do. If we talked about something and it didn’t happen, it means we made an effort but couldn’t make it happen. We are based on doing what we say. The most basic principle of the Apoist is that his word and practice are one. I take it as a basis to behave in a very dependent way. The soldiers there said, ‘Either they will go away or they will all die. My words, ‘There is no other way,’ were expressing a truth. It was said for the Turkish forces on the ridges of Amediyê and in Sêdarê. Indeed, it has been proven true. They were shot, suffered losses and then had to withdraw from there.
What would have happened if they had not withdrawn from the places you specified?
I should make it clear that; If they had not withdrawn from there for two more days, the destruction event we call that would have taken place. Perhaps the command there realized this and they quickly escaped with heavy air strikes. This situation is actually the subject of criticism. In other words, it is an inadequacy of our command there. Time was not used well, there were delays and criticism is now being made because of these delays. As I stated; Hulusi Akar sends these soldiers to their deaths. It’s not a place for soldiers to stay. In short, they have a situation where they approach the life of soldiers cheaply and risk their death very easily. TRUE; While locking onto a goal, loss can also be risked, but in this way, it is not possible to set people on fire with some imaginary planning. I can briefly state them on this subject. The word spoken there It was not a word spoken in vain. It was a possible situation. As a matter of fact, in a process that was close to happening, as I mentioned, they got ahead of the approaching end by withdrawing from there. The same can be said for other places.
Where did the Turkish army go wrong and what did it not take into account, it had to withdraw from the areas it wanted to seize and settle in a very short time?
Obviously; The current fascist regime administration failed to calculate the self-sacrificing power of the Apoist ideology and philosophy on which the guerrilla is based. Maybe they knew to some extent the ideological determination of our power, but they could not predict how it turned into a willpower. Also, “KDP is with us. Let’s not miss this opportunity, they are giving us the necessary intelligence and information, this is an important opportunity, it may most likely lead to inter-Kurdish conflict. They also participated in the process through methods such as siege, road blocking, and embargo against the PKK, and they trusted the KDP, thinking that this would give us great support. Also, “We have UAVs, SİHAs, F16s, guided missiles. Where we see them, we hit them on top and liquidate them all.
You mention a lot of tactical nuclear bombs in your statements. The word ‘nuclear’ seems exaggerated to some. Can you tell us about this bomb, what different effects does this bomb have?
A tactical nuclear bomb is an explosive that differs from other types of bombs and has much more effects. The tunnel system appeared as an insurmountable obstacle to the Turkish state last year. Obviously, they saw the banned tactical nuclear bomb as a solution. The tactical nuclear bomb isn’t the type that emits radiation as we know it. It is a type of bomb with increased destructive power by adding softened nuclear to the explosive. In other words, after this process is done, the power of impact changes according to the dosage, the Turkish state’s possessions can probably create a devastating effect of 1 kg bomb, 1 ton bomb. In fact, these bombs are only in NATO inventory, but we have used these and so on in the past. We know that weapons are distributed to NATO countries. Now, does the Turkish state use it with their permission, or does it use it secretly from them? we don’t know that. He uses these bombs against us very easily and brutally. They drop 10 kilos of these bombs into a tunnel. This 10 kg explosive has the level of a 10-ton bomb. There is also the poisonous gas emitted after the nuclear explosion. Not very widely, because softened uranium is used here. Therefore, it is a type of bomb that has a deadly and destructive effect at a distance. They probably relied on it.
There was a situation that we thought misled them; They applied this bomb in Gîrê Sor and Werxelê in the autumn of 2021. It led to martyrdoms there, and our remaining forces there withdrew. Of course, at that point, the resistance was ended. At the same time, by making tactical changes, some other tunnels switched to mobile combat rather than fixed defense. It was just a tactic for better preparation. I think this situation also led to illusions in them. They thought that now they could get definitive results with these banned weapons. Relying on this, they said, “We will liquidate those in the tunnel by using both this bomb and the chemical.”
Chemical weapons have been used in Southern Kurdistan in the past. After being used, all peshmerga forces went outside the borders of Southern Kurdistan, that is, they are leaving the area. The expectation of the Turkish state is tactical nuclear weapons, chemical weapons, SİHA, etc. It was to remove our forces from the field with technologies and destroy the rest. Here, they could not calculate our tactical performance as well as the determination of a PKK member in the Apoist ideology. For 40 years, this Movement has had a military experience, and this experience has intensified a level. In this respect, they could not accurately determine our tactical ability. In fact, we also know that they have a certain level of intelligence on this issue. They obviously thought they could overcome it with fictitious projects and fictitious military planning. However, the tactical framework we developed and the war doctrine we applied, It was focused on getting results with a strategy that carries serious and great innovations. In addition to this new tactical initiative, which definitely aims to succeed, we aimed to implement a course of action appropriate to the process. Maybe it was not fully implemented due to habits, but whether it is a SİHA, various surveillance cameras, or the KDP, it is a move that aims to nullify them all. When we correctly implement a course of action based on self-discipline, subtle camouflage, and deep secrecy, a real ghost guerrilla will become practical, failing all precautions. For this, we need to work harder and fully overcome the old-classic habits in friends.

For this, we need to work harder and fully overcome the old-classic habits in friends.
What kind of measures or style changes did you take in the face of superior techniques for the Turkish state?
I can answer your question as follows; It is the air power that provides superiority to the Turkish army in the war. In the current situation, without air power, it is not possible for us. We have developed two separate tactical approaches to balance air power;
- Spreading our forces across the terrain in an expert squad style, thus rendering them invisible. This ensured that our friends were not targeted by the technique in large groups, but we placed a team on the field, almost as if the entire land was mined.
- To develop underground castles. Yes, above-ground castles played a big role in wars in history. Today, we have reversed these castles and organized and developed them in the form of underground castles. These forts neutralize air strikes.
Therefore, the correct course of action of our forces, the way they spread over the land and the level of underground positioning is a tactical performance to balance the technical superiority in their hands. They couldn’t see it. It seems that they are not that concentrated. They thought they would get over it easily. The Turkish state thought that the PKK was an easy bite, but practical reality showed that the PKK is not such an easy bite. The PKK’s military might, along with its practical consequences, was revealed that its ideological determination was strong and capable of balancing such superiorities. So they cannot easily wipe out the PKK. That’s clear. The situation in Zap is a clear example of this. For this reason, they were stuck in Zap, Avaşîn and Metina for two years, despite their enormous military capabilities and the support of the KDP, due to their inability to calculate and read correctly. They could not fully control these areas. This is a clear result seen in practice. Although they came here to settle permanently, they withdrew from some places because they had to withdraw. As we have just mentioned, if they had not gone, they would have been destroyed anyway.
The combat performance developed by the Kurdistan Freedom Guerrilla is a new phenomenon. Maybe for the first time in history. It is a new situation for a military power that relies on human will, talent and ability against such modern technology to prove its invincibility, to nullify all kinds of attacks of the enemy and strike a blow. I want to say it one more time because it is appropriate; losses are 10 to one. Even though they have so much technology. For example; During the year, there were 4,527 plane attacks and 5,701 helicopter attacks on Zap, Avaşîn and Metîna areas. A total of 10,228 airborne attacks took place in 8.5 months. Imagine that tons of bombs fell on every square meter of these areas. Despite this, if we still live there today and the resistance continues, this is undoubtedly a new situation. Also, recently,
They created the budget according to the war…
Why did the Turkish economy come to this? Why do Turkish workers live on the border of poverty and hunger today? Turkey is not a low-income country. Why is there such a level of poverty? This regime spent a significant amount of Turkey’s income on the war and continues to do so. Some of them in the form of open budget, some in the form of hidden appropriations, some through different institutions, etc. They are spending the revenues of this country on war by methods. In the parliament, that deputy said that a smart bomb is 1.2 million. Let’s see how many smart bombs and chemicals they used against us! The government transferred the Turkish economy to the war. At the same time, tactical nuclear bombs and chemical gases were used 3,280 times against these areas. Despite all this, we have 301 martyrs. All of these martyrs are not only in Zap, Avaşîn and Metina. They are the martyrs of a total year in all our fields of struggle. This is a result that should be evaluated from a military point of view. If a power has suffered such a loss in a situation where all kinds of weapons are used and the war environment is almost turned into hell, and if it still continues to resist, this is a very important result. It is clear that this tactical perspective applied by the guerrilla is also a perspective that prevents losses and inflicts heavy blows on the enemy.
Can this tactical perspective you mention be applied in other places?
Of course it is applicable. I think that this tactical framework, shaped and developed in the Media Defense Areas, is an important example for other parts of Kurdistan as well. For example; now the fascist AKP-MHP regime wants to attack Rojava. If the fighters and peoples in Rojava make good use of the results revealed here, the Turkish state cannot carry out the invasion as it wishes. A poor people who do not have the technical means of the age can defend themselves and their lands only with this tactical perspective. This is one of the biggest results we have achieved in the Media Advocacy Areas in the last two years. The biggest gain for us is mainly that this tactical perspective has been clarified. Of course it was not easy. This result has been revealed with the effort and blood of our invaluable, heroic comrades. It is entirely up to our martyrs to uncover this tactic. Undoubtedly, this is due to the fact that the militants, who concentrate on the ideology and philosophy developed by our Leader, develop tactical creativity and put in great effort, sacrificing their lives when necessary; In other words, it is a result of blood and effort. For him, these are very important and sacred results. It is a level and situation that must be respected very much. Tactics became a reality when honest, courageous, brave commanders and warriors fought with great courage, believing in the tactical framework. This is a valuable historical result that has been achieved by paying the price and will shed light on the future. it is a result of blood and effort.

This is a valuable historical result that has been achieved by paying the price and will shed light on the future.
The developments in 2022 in terms of struggle made 2023 more important. 2022 was truly a year of resistance. The results of this great and glorious resistance will become clear in 2023. The psychological torture applied to Leader Apo in İmralı and our Leader’s stance against it; the resistance against bullying, violence and torture in all prisons today; The new and historical level of resistance of the guerrilla, which we have expressed, has reached a very important level. As self-defense forces, the resistance developed by YPS and HBDH in various cities of Turkey and Kurdistan (although the regime press and private war organs severely censored these actions); Again, the stance of the Kurdish politics and the left-socialist democratic forces of Turkey against all kinds of fascist attacks, formed the infrastructure of a very strong development potential for the future in terms of revolutionary forces as a whole. As we leave behind an important year of struggle, we see that a more important year of struggle lies before us.
What makes 2023 more important than other years, what awaits the Kurds?
Leader Apo said, “The struggle of our movement is a struggle to breathe.” It is already seen that the war will be different and important in many respects. Perhaps the struggle will be the most important year in our history. It is already clear that it will lead to decisive results in many respects.
As we have just stated, the point where this fascist regime has reached the psychological torture it has applied in Imrali and the level of our struggle against all the fascist oppressions it has applied, and the level of the Turkish revolution movement and the struggle for democracy forces as a whole, and the attitude they will take from now on will reveal important results. . In this context, the election process that will develop in Turkey gained more importance. Again, the struggle that developed in and out of prisons, the great Zap syndrome created by the guerrilla in the enemy, the resistance of the northern guerrilla in self-defense, and the developments in other fields of struggle in connection with it are very important.
The Turkish state is stuck and locked in the Zap. It has been revealed that he could not create a victory story for himself in the Medya Defense Zones, but the AKP-MHP regime needs a success story to win the election. That’s why it has now turned its direction to Rojava. He’s making plans to attack them. The situation developed jointly by Russia, Syria and Turkey is also pregnant with new developments.
Again in Eastern Kurdistan and throughout Iran, there is a women-led popular movement that has risen around the slogan of ‘Jin jiyan azadi’. It shows the passion for freedom and democracy.
All of these are the harbingers that the year we are in is hosting many developments.
As you said, Turkey and Northern Kurdistan are entering the election process. How are you looking?
Yes, there is very little time left until the election. The 2023 elections are a fateful moment for the fascist AKP-MHP regime. It is already clear that there will be a process of great importance for us and all the peoples of Turkey in connection with it. Again, the genocidal fascist regime has a certain role to attribute to this year. Since 2023 is the 100th anniversary of both the Republic and the Treaty of Lausanne, they attribute some things to them. There are also cases of handling the business in reverse. They are in an orientation with the aim of transforming the republic into a more authoritarian, oppressive and violent device. However, the task of democratization is the most important task for the peoples of Turkey. Democratization will only be possible by overcoming this fascist regime. The fascist regime, on the other hand, is faced with a very important crossroads. He will make an effort not to give up power with all his might. It seeks to achieve success in these next few months by mobilizing all its resources, both military, political, diplomatic and economic.
The path you, the democratic forces and the Turkish opposition will follow against all these fascist attacks and oppression is very important. What should be done about it?
Undoubtedly, the forces of revolution and democracy against them must aim to end and overcome the fascist regime by failing the enemy. The struggle we have developed in Kurdistan has a decisive role in this regard. Now we see the situation of the forces called opposition in Turkey. The 6-Set Table is a structure that does not have a whole in itself and goes around each other. In fact, in the current situation, there is no right and serious will to be put forward against the AKP-MHP fascist regime in Turkey. If this fascist regime succeeds in its attacks against our Movement, it will aim to reach the end by leaving other dynamics in the dust and bringing Turkey into a suffocation with a wave of chauvinism with its cries of victory. In this respect, the main thing here is our struggle. The guerrilla, our people,
Considering that our Leader’s 50-year-long struggle, especially against the genocidal regime, has reached a peak in the person of our Movement, we have to crown the next year with success. We are faced with a historical task. The process is important and historical. It is a period in which the future of all Turkish peoples will be determined. As the Apoist Movement, we are aware that our struggle has a great role in this period. In this respect, we will endeavor to act responsibly. Although those who call themselves the opposition are in a position to take a stance against us, this fascist regime will definitely come to a conclusion with the wave of chauvinism it will raise if it succeeds in the attacks it has developed against us. In this respect, our struggle is also a struggle for democracy in Turkey,
In this context, we have to protect our responsibilities towards not only Kurdistan but also all the peoples of Turkey and the region. It is a great historical task for us to do what is necessary to pave the way for democracy, not fascism in Turkey, and to make the struggle that will lead to great developments by taking responsibility for our responsibilities successful. In this respect, 2023 will be a year of great developments. This is already evident and it is clear that the resistance of our Movement has a serious impact on this.
We have planned to make 2023 absolutely successful. On this basis, it is necessary to say that the process ahead is not normal, but an extraordinary one, and that everyone should take care of their duty with extraordinary participation and sacrifice in this extraordinary process. Particularly in Kurdistan, the right participation of the fighting forces, especially the youth and women, in this period will have an important role in determining the result. The youth of Kurdistan should not see themselves as weak. He should see that he has the strength and ability to overcome the obstacles in front of him. He should organize himself by approaching creatively. This is a period when youth and free women’s dynamics should play their role. Of course, the main burden is on our Leader and the guerrilla today.
