It is true that some of TAK members were among us. However, they were criticizing our policies. They saw us very passive and soft. They were saying they favor in escalating armed struggle. Then they separated from us. Nevertheless, they also accept [Abdullah] Öcalan as their leader. Serious problems arose within us after Öcalan has been caught. Some friends were saying, “Leadership has called truce, but state didn’t get it and developed conspiracies against him”. Afterwards, some elements voicing criticism have become a unit. This unit has rapidly went to extremes and established its own organization by decoupling from us.
Rast e, hin kesên ku di nav TAKê de ne berê ligel PKKê bûn. Lê polîtîkayên me rexne dikirin. Yê ku me dikir weke pasîf û nerm bi nav dikirin. Dixwestin ku bila berxwedana çekdarî zêdetir be. Pişt re ji me qetiyan. Lêbelê ew jî Ocalan weke rêber qebûl dikin. Piştî ku Ocalan hate girtin di nav me de pirsgirêkên mezin çêbûn. Hin hevalan digotin: ‘Serokatî agirbest ragihand, lê dewlet ji vê fêm nekir û komployan pêk anî.’ Pişt re kesên ku wan rexneyan pêk dianîn, di nav xwe de civiyan. Ew girse çiqas diçû zêdetir tîj bû û ji me qetiyan.
