	'THE PRISONERS HAVE GREETINGS'

	 

	Pointing to the "boycott" actions initiated by the prisoners in prison to demand the physical freedom of PKK Leader Abdullah Öcalan, Uğur said: "Our friends continue their actions with great will and determination and will continue until they reach their goals. All our prisoner friends had many greetings to all our people, especially our patriotic families. We have gone through very difficult times with all our people so far, we hope that these days will pass as soon as possible. All our people will achieve their wishes and struggles as soon as possible, and our people, our companions, and our institutions should not give up their hopes and struggles in this regard."
