PKK set to surrender weapons to Iraq in October: Kurtulmuş
Turkish Parliament Speaker Numan Kurtulmuş on Sept. 8 announced that PKK will start disarming and surrendering weapons to Iraq’s central government this October, in line with the implementation of the “terror-free Türkiye” project.
Kurtulmuş, at a joint press conference with visiting Iraqi Parliament Speaker Haibat al-Halbousi, underlined the importance of the terror-free Türkiye project for the entire region, particularly Iraq and Syria, which have endured great suffering from the presence of terror organizations.
“Preparations for armed groups and militias in Iraq to hand over their weapons to the Iraqi Central Government starting next month are also of vital importance,” said Kurtulmuş, referring to PKK.
The dissolution and disarmament of PKK are critically important for Türkiye’s advancement of the terror-free Türkiye project through the implementation of a road map set by a security committee.
