Abdulla Ojalán
Abdulla Ojalán is a Kurdish political leader and the founding figure of the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK), established in 1978. He became a prominent symbol of the Kurdish struggle for autonomy and rights in Turkey. Ojalán has been imprisoned since 1999, serving a life sentence in Turkey, yet he continues to influence Kurdish politics. His recent call for disarmament has led to a significant shift, with the PKK announcing the end of its armed struggle against Turkey after over 40 years of conflict.
