[Jpost] Kamal Chomani, with The Amargi news outlet, spent ten days in caves waiting to interview the PKK chief in an exclusive interview about the region, Kurds, Turkey, and the world today.
The Middle East is at a crossroads. It is also in the midst of a “Third World War,” Kurdistan Workers’ Party’s (PKK) Murat Karayilan said in an interview published on October 12.
“This war is in essence a global war. A Third World War; however, these make it into a regional war. War between Shias and Sunnis. War between Iran and the Arab Gulf States. This comes from a supremacist plan and mentality. A supremacist mentality, regarding how to design the region, how to control it, and how to govern it. It is such a plan,” he told Kamal Chomani from The Amargi news outlet. This is an important interview that puts a spotlight on Kurdish issues and the region. It comes at a unique time as the PKK is moving toward disarmament.
Kamal Chomani, a PhD student at the University of Leipzig in Germany, published an important and exclusive interview with Murat Karayilan, who co-founded the PKK and who is its key leader today.
Chomani notes in the introduction to his interview, posted on X, that “I spent 10 days in the PKK headquarters and caves before finally reaching Murat Karayilan, for this exclusive interview with The Amargi.” He noted, “We begin with the wars reshaping the Middle East and then break down the peace process, in which Mr. Karayilan clearly calls on the Turkish state to end policies of denial and annihilation, and on Kurds to abandon rebellion and work toward establishing a democratic state.” He also noted that the PKK leader has not spoken to an external media outlet for 12 years.
