Istanbul, July 9, 2025 (AFP) — Both the disarmament of Kurdish PKK militants and the creation of a Turkish parliamentary committee to oversee the peace process will be "crucial", the group's jailed founder said Wednesday.

"The overall process of voluntary disarmament and the comprehensive commission envisioned to be established.. by the Turkish Grand National Assembly (parliament) are crucial. Care and sensitivity are essential," Abdullah Ocalan said in a video message just days before a first PKK disarmament ceremony in northern Iraq.
