Hope, fear and anger for families waiting to end the war

When he announced the Kurdistan staff festivities (PKK), when he was announced last month, he hoped that he would reunite Leila again with his son.

Three years ago, former sandwich sales fell home to the team – Turkey, USA, the United Kingdom and the EU organization, in the Mountains of Iraq in the Iraqi Mountains. With Iran.

In addition to the two videos sent, the last of March, Leila did not see.

“When I was aware of the announcement, I was very happy,” says Leila, because the name of which has changed because he represents the group.

“But over time, nothing has changed.”

It has been in a conflict that has killed more than 40,000 people in the PKK war for 40 years, many of them civilians, and the longest in the world.

Some BBC families declined PKK, while others who spoke pride in fighting for the group, and this sacrifice felt the path to peace talks.

PKK would stop fighting forecast as a historical moment in Turkey, its Kurdish minorities and the countries of the conflict spilled countries.

Since then, it has not started a formal peace process with Turkey and there is no official fire break by reporting reports on both sides.

In order to fight an independent of Kurdish States in Turkey, PKK has since changed the focus of the Kurds for more cultural and political autonomy.

Leila who makes the Turkish edge rose, until his son was his son, when his children, PKK did not tell PKK.

He blames his son’s “brain cleaning” group, convincing that turkey, Iraq, Syria and ethnic minorities were being defended in Iran. Kurds have the fourth largest ethnic group in the Middle East, but they do not have a national state.

Leila says that when he started making his son more independent, making bed, cleaning clothes and making dishes. He now believes that PKK would live in the mountain who was preparing for the hard life.

On the day he left, he came home home with “comrades” to start training for six months before his mother.

He said he tried again and again that he didn’t join PKK, but he made the decision to go.

“It was so determined. It would be no use to argue with him.”

Since then, Leila said that Mount Qandil visited regularly with the hope of seeing his son, but he has never seen it.

“When I see it once a year, I would be happy,” he explained.

He traveled to Mount BBC Qandil, as PKK decreased access to film.

The mountains, known and known for its natural beauty, help thousands of PKK fighters with Turkish air strikes.

The journey took hours to drive narrow and rugged roads, in the field of few signs of the population apart from a few farmers and shepherds.

As you approach a BBCK PKK checkpoint, we saw great photographs of the Group’s leader and the members of the Foundation Abdullah Ocalan – Singlegnition of Singlegnition since 1999 – through the mountains. But when the BBC arrived under control, PKK denied US entrance.

Then the groups talking to the group with the team told us the authorities and did not want the attention of the media.

They did not say what the lectures were, in the last month of Iraq, in the last month, he said he would have to do with the Government of PKK, Turkey, Iraq and Kurdistan to discuss how the weapons of the group will be given.

So far, the conditions of the peace agreement between Turkey and PKK are not known.

PKK told BBC in written expression, that it is an honest and severe process, emphasizing his leader, Ocalan, be free.

“The ball is now in the Turkish court. A peace process cannot be developed based on Unilateral steps,” said Zagros Hiwa, a spokesman of the Kurdist Kurdist Kurdist Kurdist Kurdish organizations.

In a possible sign of obstacles, a local upper-level commander, part of the second line of the Iraqi group, told BBC, BBC said in its view is not for discussion. “

It is still a suspicious of the intentions of Turkey, “When we deal with the reasons for armed conflict, weapons will not be used for both sides.”

Turkish Presidents Recep Tayyip Erdogan has interpreted the apparent will of the will with the will of the will with PKK to expand a new Constitution to expand its 22 year rule.

PKK has described it as an important step to focus on “the purpose of a non-terrorism turkey”.

In writing XN, the President of Turkey said a new era to start “elimination of terrorism and violence”.

They died fighting PKK for some families who love, if the conflict ended up soon.

Kawa Takoor was 21 years old when he died two years ago. The Rondek Takoor, who lives in Sulaimaniya in Kurdish in Kurdish, saw his sister in 2019 in the Mountains of Qandil.

Talking the family home, when photos of Kawa decorate the living room walls, Rondek says his brother’s death has changed his family life. “I always dream with him,” he said with tears.

Rond has been with thirty years, he remembers the last interview they had together.

“I asked her if he wanted to go back home with me and he said he said” never, “he also asked me to get into the mountains,” he explains.

Rond and his family, PKK, the group disbanded the group would be “pride and pain”, especially after our great loss. “

He thinks “the sacrifice we have done and the martyrs that we have lost, the leaders paved the way to speak peace.”

Next what happens is not sure.

There were thousands of Turkish PKKs that would happen to be permission to re-enter fighters and Turkish society.

Turkic officials still have to say whether these fighters will be treated as criminals. The Turkish media reports suggest that they have not returned crime in Turkey, although they could be returned without fear of accusation, if the PKK leader needs to exile or stay in Iraq.

There is no clear what a group means for some other Kurdish groups, especially in the northeastern Syria.

In the Syrian Civil War, Turkey Turks and Syrian fighters Syrian fighters A Kurdan to capture military protection units (YPG).

The YPG is an alliance of Kurdish militia and the Arab militiates, dominated by the Syrian democratic force, who took the Group of Islamic State from Syria to the support of a multinational US-LED coalition.

YPG says that the PKK is a distinctive entity, but it excludes Turkey and has been prosecuted as a terrorist organization.

Erdogan has said that PKK decisions to dissolve “The organization should cover all the expansions of the Iraq in Syria and Europe”. The SDF commander Mazloum Abdi said the PKK decision decisions “to open the way to a new political and peaceful process in the region”.

However, he said that the disarmament of PKK does not apply to SDF, which separated to match Syrian army forces in December.

In Iran, the PJak team of KCK, BBC, supports the “new process” in Turkey in Turkey, but it does not intend to disarm or disarm.

PJak is designated as a terrorist organization by Turkey and Iran. He has been a ceasefire between the group and the Iranian government since 2011.

Turkey says PJA’s arm is Iranian, but the Kurdish team denies that.

Mothers like Leila, all the complexities of politics and the intricate balance of the regional military power does not matter. He who cares is to have his son again.

“It will return home when he gets tired of the hard life of the mountains, he will realize that he can no longer take it.”

If this happens, Leila wants to leave his son PKK.

“This city brought me only pain.”
