Sevgili Lavîn!                                                                             

Hello.

I am Kadir AMAC, born in Northern Kurdistan, writer, living in exile in Brussels, the capital of Europe. On behalf of myself and my nation, I greet you with love and respect.

 

Yes, with your indulgence, I would like to briefly touch on which region the UN emerged in order to make my point clearer: UN, the families of 68 million civilians and soldiers lost during the Second World War; It emerges at a time when national, regional and global economies are in turmoil.

 

The first foundations of the UN were laid during the Second World War, when 26 states, due to the nature of an outcome, issued the United Nations Declaration on January 1, 1942, with promises to defeat unjust states. Then the UN Treaty was signed in San Francisco on 26 June 1945, the UN was formally established. This date has been celebrated as UN Day since 24 October 1945. Your Excellency is now in charge of the general secretary of this very important board. Congratulations on your success in your assignment.

 

Dear Secretary General and Distinguished Heads of State and Government!

 

of the Turks; You know better than me that with the help of the British and the French, the “State of the Republic of Turkey” was established in Lausanne on the blood of hundreds of thousands of Kurds, the tears and sweat of millions of Kurds.

 

The colonialist Turkish State has come to these days by mixing glass and diamond pieces together in order to discredit the Kurdistan issue, the freedom cause of the fifty million Kurdish people in the eyes of international institutions and to prevent the understanding of the Kurdish reality.

 

Dear Secretary General and Distinguished Heads of State and Government!

 

You know much better than me that political scientists, state theorists and encyclopedists have different perspectives on the concept of “terrorism”, that a single definition cannot be brought by these circles, and that this concept and the concept have different meanings due to these different views. So much so that a decision on a definition of “terrorism” that all international institutions, states, beliefs, politics and sociologists agree on has not yet been decided. Then, we can easily say that the concept of “terrorism” does not “always have a negative meaning for everyone”.

 

We cannot deny that some movements described as “terrorism” have political aims at the root of these practices and that they resort to means of violence to achieve these goals: I would like to put this concept in a more neutral definition, with your permission:

 

From past to present, we know that empires, modern states, international institutions, people and individuals have resorted to all means of violence to achieve their goals. Can we define every state, nation, community, group, organization or person that uses the means of violence within the concept of “terrorism” without making any political discrimination?

Normally, when separatist national liberation movements or people’s revolutionaries trying to change the regime of a state confront any government; Shouldn’t the UN and some of its institutions established by considering international norms not violate their impartiality and fulfill their promises that they will strive for peace and security for the conflicting parties?

 

I would like to come to the subject of using the “Right of Self-Determination” of indigenous nations, which derive their nationality spirit from their primordial, geographical and historical roots: The right and subject of peoples’ self-determination is a concept accepted and supported by both the UN and all global legal institutions. In other words, the UN, according to the Rules of International Law, defined the right of exploited nations not to live under the rule of colonial states, to secede and to fight for it as the concept of “Self-Determination”, LEGALIZED this right according to the norms of international law, and decided on the struggle for independence as an indisputable right.

 

Dear Secretary General and Distinguished Heads of State and Government!

 

At this point, the UN comes to mind, which should hear the cries of independence of the exploited and dependent nations. Can the UN really hear the independence cries of the exploited nations? Can he enforce his own laws and decisions against the evil done to them?

 

On this occasion, I am writing this letter to you and the almighty UN as a Kurdish Intellectual who lives with a sense of responsibility. I ask you to be a voice for our cries! How bitter and sad is it; Despite the Kurdish population of more than fifty million, the Kurdish nation still maintains the title of the most populous nation without a state.

 

Dear Secretary General and Distinguished Heads of State and Government!

 

With your high blessings, I would like to remind you of the names of the states established by some communities in the European continent, which are very few in number and live by establishing their own states and determining their future:

 

Pontificio; It is the smallest country in the world, located in Rome, Italy, at a distance of 0.440 km. this state with a face measurement; It has only 700 inhabitants.

 

Monaco; It is the second smallest independent state after the Pontificio. Its language is French, its area is 1.49 km. Its population is 32409.

 

San Marino; This country, which is one of the oldest states with a republican form of government, has a surface area of ​​61.2, a population of 28117, and its language is Italian.

 

Liechtenstein; It is located between Sweden and Austria. Its surface area is 160 km. population, 34600, language is German.

 

Andorra; It is a small independent country between France and Spain with a surface area of ​​468 and a population of 69250.

 

Although these nations are communities with a very small population, they have the title of an independent state, while the Kurds, with a population of more than 50 million, are one of the most ancient nations of the world, why are they still homeless in their own homeland, still barefoot, still stateless and still in a perse-sharp state, in the wind. swept in all directions, like the leaf swept away? Isn’t it a great injustice that the Kurds in this situation still do not have a state? Does the UN have no share or responsibility in this table?

 

After the empires, all the societies of our planet passed from nationality to nation, from nation to state; While this situation is legitimate for them, why are the Kurds deprived of this right? I think this situation is a great injustice and misfortune for the Kurds.

 

The British and the French, whose names I have mentioned above; They blinded the Kurds with the hand of the Turks, and then told the blinded Kurds that they had the freedom to look out the window. What else did they do? They cut off our language at the hands of the Turks, left us speechless, and then shamelessly told us Kurds, “You have the freedom to sing whenever you want!”

 

 

Dear Secretary General, Distinguished Heads of State and Government,

 

The Jewish nation suffered terrible evils and suffered. They were eventually liberated, liberated, and established the state of Israel on their ancestral lands. We know that the UN has made great contributions to this issue. Likewise, when the Jews were going to kill Jesus, son of Mary, the prophet Jesus lived only in fear of death. However, the evil done to the Kurds by the Turkish, Arab and Iranian States is much more painful! Because the Kurds lost their lives, they lost their homeland and they lost their language!

 

We Kurds have always been strangers within nations, foreigners within states, orphaned, wandering barefoot, they cut our tongues, they took our eyes off, they distorted our memory. We can’t remember and we can’t speak! We no longer have the strength to endure, the UN can put an end to our suffering, because that is the purpose of its establishment. By using his power and authority, he can easily resolve the Kurdish issue.

 

Dear Secretary General, Distinguished Heads of State and Government,

 

Kurds have been doing politics for half a century to express themselves in the democratic field. During this time, many Kurdish parties were formed. Although they did not attempt any acts of violence, their work was evaluated by Turkish courts as terrorist activities and they were closed. The tradition of the Turkish state to close down Kurdish parties in Northern Kurdistan, to dismiss elected mayors, to imprison them and to appoint trustees in their place dates back to the 1977 and 1979 local elections. In the 1977 local elections, Mehdi Zana won the elections from Diyarbekir and Edip Solmaz won the elections as an independent candidate from Batman. However, Mehdi Zana was dismissed and imprisoned in 1980. Edip Solmaz was murdered in 1979 by the dark forces of the Turkish Republic. In the same year, Nadir Temel won the mayoral election in Hilvan district of Urfa. However, Nadir Temel was dismissed shortly after and a trustee was appointed in his place.

 

The colonialist practices of the Turkish state towards Kurdish politics and Kurdish municipalities were not limited to the years 1977-1979. Especially in the early 1990s, when a group of Kurdish politicians left the SHP due to the pressures they experienced after their participation in the Kurdish Conference in Europe, and became involved in politics under the roof of the HEP, the pressures on Kurdish politics increased. After the attempts of the Kurdish deputies mentioned in this process to make politics on a democratic basis in line with their will, the Turkish state entered into a necrophilous neurosis and could not slow down.

 

showed his racist face and made massacres by turning to the civilian masses. While civilians were massacred, especially in settlements such as Hakkari, Yüksekova, Çukurca, Kozluk, Nusaybin, Kızıltepe, Kurtalan, Lice, Kulp, municipal buildings were occupied and the will of the people was disregarded, the houses of the mayors were scanned and the mayors were arrested and imprisoned.

 

The Turkish state murdered DEP Mardin Deputy Mehmet Sincar in Batman on September 4, 1993. These pressures culminated with the lifting of the immunity of DEP deputies in parliament and their detention on March 2, 1994. T.R. Disregarding even the state ‘s own laws, he detained DEP deputies Leyla Zana, Hatip Dicle, Orhan Doğan and Selim Sadak by force and sentenced them to 15 years of heavy imprisonment in accordance with Article 125 of the TCK.

 

In the 1999 local elections, DEHAP, the continuation of DEP, won 37 municipalities in total. Between 1999 and 2009, the Turkish Republic seized tens of these thirty-seven municipalities won by DEHAP and appointed trustees. In 2000-2012, Siirt Mayor Selim Özalp, Diyarbekir Mayor Feridun Çelik and Van Mayor Bekir Kaya, who were elected from HADEP, were detained and arrested.

 

In 2015, 18 DBP co-mayors were arrested. In 2016, he appointed trustees to 28 mayors. Dozens of elected mayors, especially Diyarbakır Metropolitan Municipality co-mayors and Batman Municipality co-mayors, were detained and arrested.

 

Finally, Kurdish politicians gathered around the HDP roof party and entered the election. In the election, they achieved a great success by winning 76 deputies and 124 municipalities. Using the KOBANE WALKINGS and the trench-digging actions of Kurdish youth in 2015 as an excuse, the Turkish state ripped through the Kurdish geography, primarily Varto, Silvan, Lice, Nusaybin, Sur, Cizre and Gever. He killed thousands of Kurdish children by shooting more than their age. He exhibited the dead bodies of Kurdish women, naked, in the middle of the street. They destroyed the homes of Kurdish mothers with their modern technological weapons. Kurdish mothers were not even allowed to bury their babies, forcing Kurdish mothers to hide their babies’ bodies in refrigerators for weeks. He committed a massacre in the village of Roboski and in the basement of a building in Cizre. One of the world’s first settlements, the magnificent Hasankeyfi with a history of 12 thousand years, was buried under water. He beat cemeteries, mosques and historical places with cannons. It has evacuated more than 5 thousand Kurdish villages in 40 years, forcing millions of Kurds to migrate.

 

 

 

He imprisoned tens of thousands of patriotic Kurdish children, especially Kurdish politicians, deputies, mayors, writers, journalists and administrators. Turkish security forces murder a Kurdish youth and the body is packed and mailed to his mother!

 

Currently, Peoples’ Democratic Party (HDP) Co-Chairs Selhatttin Demirtaş, 10 deputies together with Figen Yüksekdağ have been imprisoned for six years.

 

And finally, there is the allegation that the “Turkish Army” used CHEMICAL GASES during its operations against Kurdish guerrilla forces in the Autumn of 2022. In fact, this situation was clearly reflected on the cameras. The Turkish State has openly violated the “Chemical Weapons Convention” by committing war crimes. In short, this is the situation of the Kurds; the word ends and people are shocked!

 

Yes, T.C. We have tried to summarize with the above chronological information the fact that the state of the Kurdish political movement has not tolerated any political work, word, action or demand in the last 40 years. Therefore, the political chronology of the Kurdish political movement between 1977 and 2016 shows us the following truth:

 

1977-2019 The Kurdish political movement, which made politics on a democratic basis in Northern Kurdistan, could not achieve any gain (education and administration in the mother tongue) despite all its good intentions and efforts, and it could not be instrumental in any change in the official antagonism of the Turkish state.

 

Dear Secretary General, Distinguished Heads of State and Government,

 

As a nation, we extend the hand of peace to the Turkish state, they say no, we say let’s be brothers, they say no, we want our rights through democratic and parliamentary means and they say no!

 

Yes, I know, war is such an ugly thing! As a nation, we never desire war. So what shall we do?

 

Undoubtedly, these statements of mine are terrible and they are also things that will offend the dignity of the human family. In other words, no matter what worldview, belief or culture one looks at, every moral person and every person with a conscience knows that what was done to the Kurds is a great injustice and evil. In addition, every state with law and democracy bears witness to this reality.

 

In the history of our national liberation struggle in Kurdistan, the European Union states did not help us, the UN did not help us, NATO did not help us, Russia and Germany were completely hostile to us. We cannot deny that the Americans have been of great help. USA (in South and Rojava Kurdistan); In the North, he helped TC

 

Dear Secretary General, Distinguished Heads of State and Government,

 

• On behalf of the fifty million Kurdish people, I make the following demands from the UN: “UN High Commissioner for Human Rights”, “UN High Commissioner for Human Rights”, which are the main subsidiary institutions of the UN that deal with human rights issues and determine human rights policy.

 

The war in the cities of Kurdistan by a mixed, independent and expert commission committee, which will be composed of the Supreme Court of the United Nations, the “UN Human Rights Committee”, the “UN Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, and the “UN Sub-Commission on the Protection and Promotion of Human Rights”. I request you to prepare studies, researches, recommendations, recommendations and reports on chemical weapons, violence, torture, rights violations in prisons, racism, freedom of expression, language and religion-based discrimination and other human rights issues.

 

• I request you to initiate the “Mediation for Peace” initiative within the UN body to end this war between Turkey and the Kurds, which has been going on for 40 years, and to establish a lasting environment of peace, stability and prosperity.

 

• Recalling a historical resolution of the UN General Assembly that gave Palestine “observer state status at the UN” 8 years ago, I request the “Security Council resolution 2334” to grant “observer state status at the UN” within Kurdistan.

 

Kind regards Kadir AMAC- Author-Sociologist

LeƩer to the European Union!

 

 

Mr. Michel, President of the Council, and esteemed Prime Ministers of the member
countries!
I am Kadir Purpose. I am Kurdish. I am very interested in social sciences. I have been living in
Brussels, the capital of postmodern civilizaƟon and democracy tradiƟon, for 16 years. First of
all, I greet you all and offer my love and respect.
I would like to state that I wholeheartedly agree with the following statement about poliƟcal
authority: “The best government is the one that governs least.” Especially the modern naƟon
ideology immediately aŌer the Second World War; It needed a new state model to make the
peoples of the world forget the nightmarish days it caused and to make the peoples of the
world happy. The pioneers of scienƟfic thought, as a result of long efforts, tried to build a
new state model that was very different from the naƟon-state model. Undoubtedly,
scienƟfic thought would play a leading role in this modern state model to be newly built.
The name of this new state model built by the capitalist paradigm was: “Modern State” –
“OpƟmal State”. In order to improve the image of this new state and unleash its potenƟal,
state government theorists would not fail to enlist the collaboraƟve support of other
branches of scienƟfic thought: theology, anthropology, ethnology, sociology and philology.
However, he would be careful not to exclude anyone, and he would intend not to exclude
anyone. This desire would also pave the way for the birth of the European Union, which was
a first.
Mr. Michel, President of the Council, and esteemed Prime Ministers of the member
countries!
As you know, today’s “European Union Parliament” formed; The historical condiƟons aŌer
1945 and the search for modern state models that I tried to briefly menƟon above. These
pursuits also pioneered the process of regional unity. We can easily say that the following
are among the lower and upper factors of the condiƟons related to this union:
The construcƟon of the ConƟnent of Europe, which was turned into hell by the Second
World War; there was a need to raise the level of welfare by prioriƟzing peace, security,
democracy, freedoms and economic development based on human rights and social
cooperaƟon. The sense of protecƟng the European ConƟnent from Soviet expansionism was
also highlighted. To end the conflicts, hosƟliƟes and rivalries between Germany and France,
which have historically been at war and unseƩled their socieƟes; I also have to point out
that the second reason is the desire to bring this problem to a permanent soluƟon and bring
peace.
By the way, with your permission, I would like to menƟon the name of Jean Monnet, who
had a very serious effort in the formaƟon of this regional union. In 1951, at the iniƟaƟve of
Jean Monnet, the former Secretary General of the League of NaƟons, and adviser to the
then French Foreign Minister Robert Schuman.

By the way, with your permission, I would like to menƟon the name of Jean Monnet, who
had a very serious effort in the formaƟon of this regional union. He pioneered the
establishment of the European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC) in 1951, with the iniƟaƟve
of Jean Monnet, the former Secretary General of the League of NaƟons, and adviser to the
then French Foreign Minister Robert Schuman.
As you know, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg decided to
establish the union known as the European Economic Community (EEC) with the Treaty of
Rome in 1957. This process, together with processes such as the European Atomic Energy
Community and the Fusion Treaty, started to be called the European CommuniƟes with the
approval of these countries. These developments were included in this process in 1973 as a
result of long efforts and efforts in countries such as the United Kingdom, Denmark and
Ireland. The union also expanded with the parƟcipaƟon of countries in the south of Europe
such as Greece, Spain and Portugal. In 1993, it raƟfied the European Union Treaty
(Maastricht Treaty), which created the European Union (EU) and laid the groundwork for
monetary union, and has grown with 11 enlargement waves to date and has become a major
poliƟcal, cultural and economic power with 27 members.
Mr. Michel, President of the Council, and esteemed Prime Ministers of the member
countries!
The poliƟcal ideas of the European Union on fundamental rights and freedoms are
unquesƟonably accepted as the rights derived from internaƟonal treaƟes as fundamental
rights specified and protected by the member states. Some member states have sought
more effecƟve protecƟon in the field of fundamental rights. Some changes made with the
treaƟes have led to some developments in this regard. For example, the “Treaty of
Maastricht”; It introduced the principle of commitment to respect for fundamental rights in
accordance with the 1953 “European ConvenƟon on Human Rights” and the common
tradiƟons of the member states. The “Amsterdam Treaty” (ArƟcles 6 and 7) strengthened
this commitment. The Council may suspend the rights of the Member State concerned in
case of serious and persistent violaƟons of human rights. For the same purpose, the Charter
of Fundamental Rights was proclaimed in Nice, France in 2000.
Mr. Michel, President of the Council, and esteemed Prime Ministers of the member
countries!
Now, I would like to briefly discuss the rule of law, protecƟon of human rights and
fundamental freedoms or the development and consolidaƟon of democracy, which is one of
the objecƟves of the “Common Foreign and Security Policy” of the European Union, in the
context of fundamental rights and freedoms of the Kurds. While doing this, I want to make
the voice of the stateless people, the Kurds, with a populaƟon of 50 million, be heard by the
President of the Council and the Parliament, which I consider democraƟc and civilized.
In this context, the common internaƟonal obligaƟons and consƟtuƟonal tradiƟons of the
Member States, with reference to the “European Union DeclaraƟon of Fundamental Rights”,
“Treaty on European Union”, “Community TreaƟes”, “European Human Rights” and
“Fundamental Rights”. and the ConvenƟon for the ProtecƟon of Freedoms”, ”Social
DeclaraƟons” adopted by the Community and the Council of Europe and the ”European
Court of JusƟce” and ”European Court of Human Rights” and to benefit from all the rights
arising from the case-law, and in parƟcular; In the first arƟcle; Human dignity, in the second
arƟcle; The right to life, in the third arƟcle; The right to physical and mental immunity of the
person, in the fourth arƟcle; I invite the implementaƟon of provisions such as the prohibiƟon
of torture or inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment for the fundamental rights of
Kurds and the freedom of future generaƟons.
Why can’t the European Union offer more permanent soluƟons to Turkey by making more
meaningful calls, apart from calling for calm in the Kurdistan issue and making a statement
by observing a policy of balance? Or I would like to ask directly: Are you really trying to help
the Kurds or is your conscience clear about the Kurds? Why don’t you try to pressure the
Turkish State to at least provide educaƟon and training in their mother tongue? I think that
Pakistani intellectual Mohammed Iqbal’s statement “The West killed the heart, the East
killed the mind” makes sense at this point.
Mr. Michel, President of the Council, and esteemed Prime Ministers of the member
countries!
I would like to conƟnue my assessments by addressing the issue from a raƟonal and realist
point of view: You know much beƩer than me that “third party” assistance MUST be
provided for the resoluƟon of conflicts and the establishment of lasƟng peace between the
conflicƟng parƟes. The powers that are not parƟes to the Turkish-Kurdish conflict or conflict
strive to find a middle ground between the conflicƟng parƟes. In my opinion, “third parƟes”
bring messages back and forth between the warring powers, addressing the issues one by
one, clarifying them and suggesƟng compromises. For example, the UN’s Ralph Bunche
between Arabs and Israelis in 1949, President Carter between Begin and Anwar Sadat at
Camp David in 1978, and Richard Holbrooke in Dayton on Bosnia in 1995.
We can show you the pracƟces. I think that as much as the parƟes to the poliƟcal conflicts
are willing to seek resoluƟon and peace, the “third parƟes” must also be very determined
and sincere about resoluƟon and peace.
At this point, have you ever thought of proposing a new consƟtuƟon or the “Belgian Model”
to the parƟes in order to end the conflict between the Kurdish and Turkish armed forces and
for the two peoples to live together in fraternity on equal terms?
The President of the Council, Mr. Michel, and the esteemed prime ministers of the member
states!
We can think of the separaƟst demands of the naƟons as an earthquake fault line coming
from its primordial roots. We know that all separaƟst and pro-independence movements
resort to violent devices. The most important reason for this is that the right to poliƟcal
sovereignty is not resolved by democraƟc methods or through dialogue and peace talks. For
these reasons, we all know very well that poliƟcal groups aim for independence by means of
violence. The fact that naƟons such as ETA, PKK, PLO, Tamil Tigers and Tigeros were born on
the right to self-determinaƟon are voiced by all poliƟcal scienƟsts.
There is a saying: “One man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom fighter.” If Basques,
PalesƟnians and Tamils have the right to be free and separate from us Kurds, despite their
small size in terms of populaƟon and area, Kurds have the right to obtain their fundamental
rights and freedoms. Isn’t that a very natural right? It is well known that states such as Spain,
Turkey, Israel and Sri Lanka do not want these peoples to have a state like them, and do not
respect the right of these peoples to self-determinaƟon. For example, the Tamil Ilam
LiberaƟon Tigers in Northern Sri Lanka were founded in 1976 and fought for the
independence of Tamils from that date to 2009. They were defeated in the war, but this
problem sƟll conƟnues. More than 60 thousand people died in this war. Likewise, the Igbos
sought to secede from their new state, Biafra, and Nigeria in the late 1960s. But they were
defeated at the end of a long and costly war. However, the Bengalis separated from their
new state Bangladesh and Pakistan in 1971. CroaƟa and Bosnia, in the early 1990s and now
members of the “European Union”; He fought the Serbs to leave Yugoslavia. The Iraqi Kurds
also achieved the federaƟon gain and now they want to become a state step by step.
The Kurds in Syria fought a successful war against fundamentalist and Islamist terrorist
groups and liberated the Kurdish geography under the occupaƟon of Syria. Today, the whole
world knows and sees very well that the Kurds have transformed the two fronts of their
homeland, which was also divided by this war, into a semi-state. Similar efforts are possible
among Kurds in Turkey and Iran. But the Kurds never do this through violence; they want to
solve it with democracy, peace and negoƟaƟon method.
As a human being, as a writer, I do not find it right that neither the Kurds nor the Turks
resort to the means of violence. We live in a civilized and civilized world. As the presidents of
the European Union countries represenƟng the postmodern civilizaƟon, you can resolve the
Kurdistan issue peacefully and democraƟcally and take iniƟaƟve. I also think you have this
opportunity.
Kind regards
Powerful Purpose
