/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan rejected
the call of leader of Kurdish separatists Abdullah Ocalan to
ceasefire, reports the AFP. `Armistice is not concluded with
terrorists,’ Erdogan replied urging Kurds to lay down arms.

Yesterday leader of the Kurdish Worker’s Party (PKK) Abdullah Ocalan,
who is serving life sentence in the Turkish jail called on the Turkish
authorities and Kurdish separatists to conclude an armistice.

However, the PKK soldiers ignored Ocalan’s call and on September 28
night blew up the gas pipeline that conveys Iranian natural gas to
Turkey. There are killed and injured. The fire was seen in a radius of
45 km.
