Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan is going to come up with a plan for the solving of the Turkish Question before the jailed Kurdish leader Abdullah Ocalan.

Ocalan, a former leader of the Kurdish Workers' Party PKK who has been jailed for life over terrorism and sedition, intends to present a plant for solving the problems of the numerous Kurdish population in Southeast Turkey on August 15, 2009.

The Erdogan government, however, is going to come up with a plan of its own earlier than him, according to an unnamed source from the governing Justice and Development Party, as quoted by the Radical newspaper.

The source has indicated that the ruling party is discussing issues about the Kurds that had been taboo, and that Erdogan's plan enjoyed the support of the USA and of Iraq, where the autonomous Iraqi Kurdistan is located.
