Ocalan's letter to the Turkish state encompassed four main points. Our political goal is not to bring about a split from the present borders of Turkey. This is not a questions of our political or military strength. In order to bring freedom to the Kurds, the borders of Turkey don't necessarily need to be changed. The freedom of people is not a geographical question, rather it results from a life philosophy, a free will, and the right to self-determination.
Different peoples can be free within the same borders.
Suggestions that the PKK no longer is striving for independence and freedom are not true. I believe the present reality, however, means that changing borders could bring the people to a difficult situation, leading to fights among the blind. It would be best if our peoples could come to an understanding based on free will, to agree on our interests, and to do what is best for all. Given these aspects, the state must be reorganized. That is very important.
