    Captured Russian Militant: Iraqi Kurds Allow PKK Activities in Iraq

    Jan Soykok (JTW), 30 December 2004

    ANKARA - Anatoliy Kopilov, a PKK militant captured in Iraq in
    November 2004, says the two main Kurdish groups in Iraq, KDP and KPP,
    allows PKK terror activities in Iraq. AktifHaber, Turkish news portal
    reported that Kopilov, a former Russian Army officer, joined the PKK
    Organization 5 years ago. Kpilov served to the Russian Army for two
    years and joined the organization in Moscow. It is argued that the
    Russian Federation supported the PKK terrorism in 1980s and 90s in
    order to destabilize Turkey, a strong NATO member.
    Kapilov says he lived in the PKK camps for the last 5 years and
    became a PKK team leader.
    `Communication equipments are provided from Netherlands. The missiles
    for the PKK come through Armenia. Communication with the European
    bases are being done via internet. There are 3 tones TNT, 2,500
    mines, and 2,000 missiles in the PKK bases by Lolan River. The KDP
    and the PPK turn a blind eye to PKK activities in Iraq. Even the
    KDP's man Tarik provided military equipments to the PKK-KongraGel.
    After the American occupation, the PKK-Kongra Gel captured many
    military equipment from the Iraqi Army. The equipment was brought by
    trucks to the PKK camps. An American Delegation came to the Hakurk
    PKK Camp last April' added Kapilov.
    PKK-Kongra Gel is considered as one of the most dangerous terrorist
    organizations by the United States, United Kingdom, Germany and the
    European Union and the law of these countries ban any support or
    contribution to the PKK-Kongra Gel. The PKK has armed bases in Iraq.
    The US forces however have done nothing since the beginning of Iraqi
    occupation though President Bush and his officers promised to remove
    the terrorist PKK bases in Iraq
