Mr. Oktar many times stated that the PKK, the PYD and the YPG were the same terror organisation. Following Mr. Oktar, many politicians also drew attention to the same fact. Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, said, "the PYD and the PKK are the same terror organizations." He also said: "Can a terror organization represent the Kurds?" 30 September 2015, A9 TV ADNAN OKTAR: The PYD, the YPG, the PJAK, they are all the PKK. They have a single center. In the leadership of Abdullah Öcalan, all these terror organisations struggle to establish a communist Kurdistan of a Marxist, Leninist, Stalist nature in Turkey and around Turkey. 22 September 2015, A9 TV (John Kirby, spokesman for the United States Department of State, also made a statement. He indicated that the USA didn't see the YPG as a terror organization.) ADNAN OKTAR: .... The founders of the PYD and the PKK are the same. They have the same ideology, the same leader, the same flag etc. The Turkish courts made a verdict and said: "The YPG is a terrorist organization". This is sufficient. 28 July 2015, A9 TV ADNAN OKTAR: Is the YPG not on the list of terrorist organizations? If not, it is disgraceful and terrifying since they themselves say: "We are members of the PKK". Furthermore, there is a court verdict about the YPG stating that it is a terror organization. There are also similar statements of international organizations. Those people already hang the photos of Abdullah Öcalan. They walk around with the PKK flags. They have shot many Turkmens. They shoot Arabs as well and force them to evacuate their villages. The PYD, the YPG, the YPJ, the PJAK, they all belong to the PKK. They are all the PKK, changing name is just a bad tactic. 27 October 2014, A9 TV ADNAN OKTAR: The PYD is a branch of the PKK. Its mastermind is Abdullah Öcalan. We shouldn't trust any of them. They are no different from one another. They act altogether. You are clearly a terrorist organization. You kill people day and night. 26 October 2014, A9 TV ADNAN OKTAR: The entire region acts upon the instructions of Abdullah Öcalan. There is a PKK in Qandil and another PKK somewhere else; no this suggestion is out of question. There is only one PKK. The PYD, the PJAK and all the others are different branches of the PKK which operate under different names. There is no other situation. |
