Peshmerga commander: I won’t fire a single bullet at the PKK

Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK) Politburo member and Germiyan Front Peshmerga Commander Mahmud Sengawi talked about “a mistake within mistake” and said, ‘we shouldn’t be a party to this’. He pointed out that Turkey and Iraq seek to start a civil war among the Kurdish forces.

Remarking that Kurds should avoid a civil war, Sengawi continued, “We cannot fight and kill the children of this people just to get a ‘well done’ from Turkey and Iraq. We should all take to the streets and oppose a civil war. It is a great mistake for our nation to fight the PKK. I personally oppose this.”

Sengawi said he conveyed this to the co-chairs of PUK, adding, “I will not fire a single bullet at the PKK even if all hell breaks loose.”
