Kurdish militant group PKK to disband and end decades of conflict with Turkiye

ai generated text

The Kurdish Workers' Party (PKK), a separatist group seeking autonomy in Turkey, has announced its decision to disband and disarm. This historic move comes after four decades of violence that killed over 40,000 people. The decision was made by the PKK's executive committee, which stated that the group's mission had been completed and that the conflict can now be resolved through democratic politics.

    1. To be clear, this only concerns the PKK and is nothing related to us here in Syria.
    1. The SDF… claims that the PKK disarmament process is unrelated to its negotiations. Yet it also acknowledges that a PKK deal could bring a halt to Turkish attacks in Syria, since Ankara would theoretically be less concerned about a continued SDF presence along the border.
    1. The 12th PKK Congress has decided to dissolve the PKK's organisational structure and end its method of armed struggle.
    1. We are advancing with firm steps on the path to the goal of a terror-free Turkey.
    1. If the latest PKK decision is fully implemented, shutting down all of its branches and structures, it will be a turning point.
    2. If terrorism is completely eradicated, it will open the door to a new era.
    1. This is not the end, it is a new beginning.
    1. It is a positive development should Turkey's decades-long armed conflict with the PKK come to an end. There are, however, major obstacles ahead.
