“#AANES is aware of its responsibility towards all Syrians. Therefore, it will strive to take the necessary steps to resolve the crisis and establish peace and stability, taking into consideration that the international and regional platforms and initiatives”

… and all Syrian parties for consultations and discussions to provide initiatives to find a solution to the Syrian crisis”
2️⃣ Syrian crisis resulted from the lack of democratic & social policies and the marginalization of Syria’s diverse ethnic and religious communities. Each ethnic and religious group has its own characteristics and the right to citizenship and equality …
There are national commonalities among all Syrians & different cultures that must be recognized & respected to enrich #Syria’s national fabric. Therefore any democratic solution should recognize the legitimate rights of all religious & ethnic communities.
The collective rights of Syria’s communities must be protected, and democratic values and mechanisms must be developed in order to build an administrative political system based on democracy, pluralism, and decentralization, that ensures equal rights for all Syrians #TwitterKurds

6️⃣ AANES affirms that its struggle and efforts in the fight against terrorism will be ongoing to deter the terrorism of #ISIS & other terrorist groups and to eliminate their threats to #Syria, the region and the entire world
The AANES has lost thousands of its men and women in the fight against terrorism, and paid huge sacrifice to rid the world from terrorism on behalf of the whole world #TwitterKurds
7️⃣ The #Turkish government has deepened the Syrian crisis, dismantled the country’s territory and its unity, and supported terrorist groups, such as Daesh and others. The Turkish government’s intervention in Syria aims to divert attention from its internal crises and to export …

On this day in 1998 Abdullah Ocalan was forced to leave Syria. In Europe he wanted support for a peaceful solution of Kurdish issue. Today, Ocalan’s philosophy which led to #JinJiyanAzadi can be heard in any country that refused to guarantee him political asylum #FreedomForOcalan
No country was willing to take the Kurdish leader, or to take initiative in mediating negotiations between the conflicting parties. The Kurds were seen to be standing in the way of the geostrategic & economic interests of the leading powers in the Middle East #FreedomForOcalan
On 14th Feb 1999 Ocalan was kidnapped in Nairobi & handed over to Turkey as an act of international piracy involving the CIA, the Turkish MIT & Mossad. It was also supported by the governments of Russia, Greece and other European countries #FreedomForOcalan
