PKK declares dissolution, end to armed struggle
|
[Rudaw] The Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) declared its dissolution and an end to its armed struggle against The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the decaying remnant of the Ottoman Empire...
on Monday, marking a huge step toward a peaceful resolution to the decades-long conflict with Ankara.
"The PKK’s 12th Congress decided to dissolve the PKK’s organizational structure and end the armed struggle method, with the practical process to be managed and carried out by Leader Apo [Abdullah Ocalan], and ended the work carried out under the PKK name," PKK-affiliated Firat news agency cited a statement from the group as saying.
The PKK on Friday said it had held a congress to consider a call from its tossed in the slammer
Drop the gat, Rocky, or you're a dead 'un!
leader Ocalan to lay down arms, dissolve the party, and pursue a political struggle.
The pro-Kurdish Peoples’ Equality and Democracy Party (DEM Party), which has played a role in bringing the PKK and Ankara together and has made multiple visits to Ocalan, welcomed the congress.
"A new page is opening on the path to honorable peace and democratic solution. As the DEM Party, after this historic turning point, we believe in the necessity for all democratic political institutions, especially the Ottoman Turkish Grand National Assembly [parliament], to take responsibility for the solution of the Kurdish issue and the true democratization of Turkey," the party said on Friday.
The PKK declared a unilateral ceasefire at the start of March while it considered Ocalan’s call for peace.
Ottoman Turkish officials have publicly continued their hardline stance on the PKK. On Friday, Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan said that disarmament alone is "not enough" and President His Enormity, Sultan Recep Tayyip Erdogan the First
 ...Turkey's version of Mohammed Morsi but they voted him back in so they deserve him. It's a sin, a shame, and a felony to insult the president of Turkey. In Anatolia did Recep Bey a stately Presidential Palace decree, that has 1100 rooms. That's 968 more than in the White House, 400 more than in Versailles, and 325 more than Buckingham Palace, so you know who's really more important...
said Turkey is determined to rid itself of the "scourge of terror."
The PKK was founded in 1978 in response to the oppression of the Kurdish population in Turkey. It initially struggled for an independent Kurdistan but now calls for greater political and cultural rights within Turkey. Ankara and its Western allies consider the group a terrorist organization.
A similar grinding of the peace processor begun between the PKK and the Ottoman Turkish state in 2013 collapsed two and a half years later.
