	'LET ISOLATION BE ENDED, LET THE KURDISH ISSUE BE SOLVED'

	 

	The marchers then moved to Dîgor district. DEM Party Deputy Omer Ocalan commemorated those who lost their lives in the Dîgor Massacre.

The only interlocutor for the solution of the Kurdish issue is Mr. Ocalan. Our struggle will continue until freedom is achieved. Where we stand is legitimate. You are the one who is illegitimate, does not recognize the law, and is the one who oppresses. Obey your laws and get out of our way. Everyone sees your cruelty. People of Dîgor also know about the meeting held by Mr. Ocalan here. Dîgor had the most difficult days, but it did not bow its head.”

	Ocalan continued as follows: "We want no one to die anymore and an honorable peace to be achieved. Only Mr. Ocalan can provide this peace. Our people know everything. We will continue to march for our people and our Leader. Open the gates of Imralı now."
