He highlighted both the significance of the visit and the invitation extended to Ahmed, saying, \u201cLet Ilham Ahmed come to Turkey, so they can meet and reach an agreement.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The DEM Party co-chair stressed the political weight of the committee\u2019s meeting with \u00d6calan, describing it as a step that \u201cmoved the Kurdish issue to a strong political ground.\u201d He added that the visit represented \u201ca victory for the logic of a solution,\u201d noting that the time has come to shift what he termed the \u201claw of fraternity\u201d from a state of conflict to a legal and democratic framework.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bak\u0131rhan said the delegation\u2019s trip to Imrali removed \u201can important obstacle on the path to peace,\u201d adding that the move was a \u201ccourageous step toward building social peace\u201d and would strengthen efforts toward a political solution. He confirmed that the committee is scheduled to meet \u00d6calan again on December 4 and stated that the delegation would share the meeting minutes with the broader committee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In another part of his speech, Bak\u0131rhan referred to the role of AANES, saying the administration continues to \u201cstruggle on one hand while extending a hand of friendship to its neighbors on the other.\u201d He noted, \u201cThere is a hand of friendship extended from North and East Syria to Turkey in particular. This hand must now be taken.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He added that Ilham Ahmed had been invited to an international conference in Istanbul scheduled for the end of the week and had expressed willingness to attend. \u201cBut no response has been issued yet regarding the matter. We are awaiting a positive stance,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>By Atoun Jan<\/strong><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>QAMISHLO, Syria (North Press) \u2013 Tuncer Bak\u0131rhan, co-chair of Turkey\u2019s Equality and Peoples\u2019 Democracy Party (DEM Party), on Tuesday called on Ilham Ahmed, the Kurdish politician and co-chair of the External Relations Department of the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria (AANES), to visit Turkey to pursue what he described as a potential agreement.
