🧵Today marks an historic day for us, the Kurds and other people in the Middle East. Abdullah Ocalan, the imprisoned leader of the PKK, called for the disarmament and dissolution of the PKK. There are arguments both for and against this call. 1/

Following comments by Hakan Fidan, the Turkish foreign minister, stating that if the central government in Syria fulfills its duty regarding the SDF, there will be no need for Turkey to launch an incursion into Syrian territory, the former military chief of HTS,👇🏽

The recent comments from the HTS are concerning. The Kurds have not sacrificed more than 11,000 young daughters and sons in the fight against ISIS in Syria to be ruled by Islamist jihadists.👇🏽

Defending #Rojava is both politically and morally essential. The Kurds in Rojava were the forces that led the war against ISIS, a threat to human dignity on an international scale. The Kurds not only liberated the Kurdish region in Syria but also sacrificed many young lives in Raqqa, the👇🧵

Everyone in Syria, except the Kurds, should have a taste of freedom at any moment! The only place under constant bombing, looting, and killing by the Turkish state and its backed SNA terrorist groups is the #DAANES and #Rojava. The US, the West, and their allies do not care about👇

Let’s celebrate today in solidarity with the revolutionary struggle and resistance of the women of #Rojava. Let’s unite to defend Rojava and the #DAANES, a beacon of hope for liberating life from the interlocked forms of power in the Middle East.

for over the years? Can the vicious cycle of dictatorships and Islamist fundamentalism finally end? The model of Democratic Confederalism, currently practiced in North and East Syria (Rojava), offers a solution, but👇

A Turkish attack on the #DAANES could reproduce the same forces of repression and Islamist extremism by weakening, challenging, and distracting the #SDF, and changing the balance of power in favour of other groups such as HTS.👇

So far, the Turkish state is the biggest threat to the stability of post-Assad Syria. #Turkey, with its SNA mercenaries, disrupts peaceful and democratic negotiations among the diverse actors in Syria. 🧵👇

If the international community and institutions want a more democratic and secular Syria that will not pose a threat to the West, and if they wish to prevent Afghanistan-like forms of governance from emerging in Syria, they must stop Turkish aggression and its SNA mercenaries.

The Turkish anti-Kurdish policy is beyond imagination. In 2018, the Kurds in Afrin were forced by Turkish-backed jihadist militias to abandon their lives, homes, and lands and resettle elsewhere. Many of these people sought refuge in Tal Rifaat, but now, once again, they are being forced to👇
