Abdullah Öcalan has been imprisoned for 25 years on the island prison of Imrali, with the last three and a half years spent in complete isolation. This talk from 1st of October in GT22, Maribor with Dr. Müslüm Örtülü (Kurdish center of Public relations - Civaka Azad) sheds light on the abduction and imprisonment of Öcalan and the torture practices of the Turkish state, linking Öcalan’s situation to the broader policies against the Kurdish people. Furthermore, in response to his imprisonment, it discusses the paradigm of Democratic Confederalism as Öcalan’s proposition for a democratic solution, that has been put into practice in Rojava and other parts of Kurdistan.
