English: Thank you, Presiding Officer. I'm just grateful to you for letting me speak for a couple of minutes. The fact is that I've been to Kurdistan myself. I stayed in Sulaymaniyah, I stayed in Duhok and I stayed in Diyarbakir. I've travelled through Kurdistan, which is divided into four parts, partly owned by Iranians, partly owned by Syrians, partly owned by Iraqis and partly owned by Turkish. At the moment, Abdullah Öcalan - [ Interruption.] Just let me speak my few words, please. You must be aware of the background of Kurdistan first. They're all Muslim. I went there in one of my Kurdish friends' company and one of the restaurants would not serve me because they thought I was an Arab, and, once they were told I was British, then, actually, they looked after me very well - Kurdish fellow. I'm very, very friendly with Kurdish people, I went with them, and three times more, and I'm friendly with Turks also. Don't underestimate that they are altogether. They are living there for centuries. Now, you're setting up a very different precedent here. If somebody comes from any part of the world and starts going on a hunger strike - 'Do this in my country otherwise I'm going to die' - what message are you going to give to the world? There are many, many other parts of the world having the same sort - [ Interruption.] Wait a minute. They're having the same problems and you're giving a route for this sort of thing - 'Okay, come to this country; we'll try to help you'. That is actually a problem for those people to sort out their own problems with their own communities. Please, yes, you wanted to ask something.
Welsh: Diolch i chi, Lywydd. Rwy'n ddiolchgar i chi am adael imi siarad am funud neu ddwy. Y ffaith yw fy mod wedi bod yn Kurdistan fy hun. Arhosais yn Sulaymaniyah, arhosais yn Duhok a arhosais yn Diyarbakir. Rwyf wedi teithio drwy Kurdistan, sydd wedi'i rhannu'n bedair rhan, ac yn berchen yn rhannol i'r Iraniaid, yn rhannol i'r Syriaid, yn rhannol i Irac ac yn rhannol i Dwrci. Ar hyn o bryd, mae Abdullah Öcalan - [ T orri ar draws.] Gadewch imi siarad fy ychydig eiriau, os gwelwch yn dda. Rhaid i chi fod yn ymwybodol o gefndir Kurdistan yn gyntaf. Maent oll yn Fwslimiaid. Euthum yno yng nghwmni un o fy ffrindiau Cwrdaidd ac nid oedd un o'r bwytai yn fodlon gweini arnaf oherwydd eu bod yn credu mai Arab oeddwn i, a phan gawsant wybod fy mod yn dod o Brydain, fe wnaethant edrych ar fy ôl yn dda iawn - cyfaill Cwrdaidd. Rwy'n gyfeillgar tu hwnt gyda'r bobl Gwrdaidd, euthum gyda hwy, a thair gwaith wedyn ac rwy'n gyfeillgar â Thyrciaid hefyd. Peidiwch â bychanu'r ffaith eu bod gyda'i gilydd. Maent yn byw yno ers canrifoedd. Nawr, rydych yn gosod cynsail gwahanol iawn yma. Os bydd rhywun yn dod o unrhyw ran o'r byd ac yn dechrau mynd ar streic newyn - 'Gwnewch hyn yn fy ngwlad neu fel arall rwy'n mynd i farw' - pa neges a roddwch i'r byd? Ceir llawer iawn o rannau eraill o'r byd sy'n cael yr un math - [ T orri ar draws.] Arhoswch funud. Maent yn cael yr un problemau ac rydych chi'n rhoi llwybr i'r math hwn o beth - 'Iawn, dewch i'r wlad hon; fe geisiwn ni eich helpu'. Mae honno'n broblem mewn gwirionedd i'r bobl hynny ddatrys eu problemau eu hunain gyda'u cymunedau eu hunain. Os gwelwch yn dda, ie, roeddech eisiau gofyn rhywbeth.
