Al-Ibrahim continued: “The fascist Turkish state believes that placing the leader in Imrali prison fulfills its hopes, but in reality, the leader’s struggle inside the prison is a source of strength for the people to struggle for their physical freedom and stand up to the attacks and crimes committed against them by the capitalist state, first and foremost among them.” Turkey, the thought and spirit of the leader are among us, and we will achieve his physical freedom by disseminating his ideas and analyzes among society.”

Referring to the campaign demanding the physical freedom of leader Abdullah Ocalan, Al-Ibrahim said: “The free peoples who launched the international campaign demanding the physical freedom of the leader saw with their own eyes that the freedom of peoples in the Middle East cannot be achieved and crises cannot be resolved except with the physical freedom of the leader,” stressing that the experience Democratic Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria AANES is the product of the leader’s thought and philosophy, which deepened the people’s belief that the leader’s physical freedom is the way to save the people from injustice and tyranny and confront the occupation.”

The leader fought, with his thought and philosophy, capitalist laws and systems.”

For his part, the intellectual Imad Al-Ahmad said: “Despotic countries establish laws and policies to serve power and capitalism and have deluded people that the only way to life is to live under the shadow of capitalist modernity and work under its orders and agendas, and that the goal of life is selfishness and individual gains, and to transform societies into the law of the jungle in which the strong eat the weak."

He continued: "Leader Abdullah Ocalan fought, with his ideas, philosophy, and struggle, those capitalist laws and policies that enslave people in the service of money and power, and we proved in North and East Syria that this thought serves man and society, and returns people to their true essence. We can live away from capitalism and bring society to freedom, and democracy to be a free moral society.”

Al-Ahmad stressed at the conclusion of his speech, “Today, North and East Syria have become a home for all those seeking freedom, and their visit to these regions completed their belief that the thought of the democratic nation and the freedom of the thinker and philosopher Abdullah Ocalan are the peoples’ expected salvation from slavery, and they carried with them their faith to their peoples who are walking to freedom across the nation’s bridges.” Democracy, we are indebted to the leader’s thought and we must increase the pace of our struggle to achieve his physical freedom.”
