Iran offered heavy weaponry to PKK to step back from Turkey withdrawal

[-SINAN-]

Iranian intelligence offered the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) heavy weaponry and logistical support to discourage the militant group from the peace process, daily Milliyet claimed today, citing a senior Turkish government official and the autonomous Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) in northern Iraq.

PKK military leader Murat Karayılan rejected the offer of “heavy weaponry” and “logistical support” by Gen. Qasem Soleimani, the commander of Iran’s Qods Force, to continue militant activities, the report said. It also added that Tehran was conducting “secret diplomacy” to dissuade militants from withdrawing from Turkey.

In interviews with Turkish media, Karayılan had said the PKK had some unused “opportunities” to resume its insurgency. “If we remain open to these [opportunities], there would be many countries in the region against Turkey. We can get foreign support, but on this occasion we did not,” he was quoted as saying by daily Milliyet.

We will see the truthness of the news from the actions of Turkish Government. If this news is true, we are gonna see some sort of retalion from Turkey.

The author of this news is Aslı Aydıntaşbaş, she is a highly crediable author from milliyet newspaper. I don't think she will jeopardize her position with making fake news.

Not all Iranians,just the Mullahs in charge.

What a joke. Why would Iran endanger its trade and economic ties with Turkey over a bunch of mountain monkeys ?

 

[T-123456]

It is not an official statement,but its in Irans interest if Tukey has internal problems.
Regarding Syria mostly,and Turkey is an obstacle in regional power projection for Iran.
The more Turkey has internal problems the better for Iran.

Iran will pay heavily for this.

We need to help our Azeri brothers in Iran who are being suppressed.

And we need to eliminate the threat from Iran once and for all.

Not hard to believe, Iran has always used and funded kurdish militias since the shah.

What kind of retaliation are you expecting? Should we help Israel and US when their offense begins?
