Ocalan, PKK leader, calls for end to Turkey's Kurdish conflict, potentially leading to his release.

Abdullah Ocalan, the imprisoned leader of the PKK, is expected to make a "historic call" for a permanent resolution to Turkey's Kurdish conflict. This comes after meetings between Ocalan and pro-Kurdish party lawmakers, and discussions with the Turkish government. Ocalan's call may be conditioned on steps by Turkey, including the possibility of his conditional release if the PKK disbands. The move is seen as a potential breakthrough in the decades-long conflict that has resulted in over 40,000 deaths.
