Kurd separatist Ocalan announces ceasefire
(03-21 19:49)
Jailed Kurdish rebel leader Abdullah Ocalan called for a ceasefire in the 29-year-conflict with Turkey and for the separatist Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) rebel fighters to withdraw.
“We are at a stage where guns should be silenced,’’ Ocalan said in a letter written from his prison cell and read out to a vast crowd in the southern city of Diyarbakir by a Kurdish lawmaker. “We are at a stage where our armed elements should withdraw from Turkey.’’- AFP
