Ocalan to assist Kurdish rebel disarmament
A Turkish presidential advisor confirmed that Abdullah Öcalan, the imprisoned leader of the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) for the past 27 years, will participate in the disarmament committee as part of Turkish-Kurdish peace efforts. This comes after the Turkish Parliament approved a law in August granting limited amnesty to PKK fighters. Öcalan is expected to oversee the disarmament process without being released. This arrangement aims to facilitate a political solution to the long-standing conflict, with an emphasis that Öcalan's participation does not mean his release and that his role is limited to promoting dialogue.
