Interior minister addresses intelligence service for leaking Oslo talks

Interior Minister Efkan Ala has addressed National Intelligence Organization (MİT) members for the responsibility of leaking recordings in 2011 about secret talks between the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) and Turkish officials that took place in the Norwegian capital Oslo.

“The Oslo talks were leaked over sabotage within state units,” Ala said speaking in parliament on late March. 2.

His remarks were in reply to a motion of censure issued by the Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) for Ala, in which the opposition party accused the establishment of the so-called “parallel state” and for destroying the unitary state. The motion was refused by the parliament members.
