Istanbul - (Saba):
The Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) announced this morning, Monday, its dissolution and the end of its armed conflict with Turkey, based on the decisions of the conference it held a few days ago.
The Firat News Agency, which is close to the party, stated that it had accomplished what it described as its historic mission, noting that the party "believes that Kurdish political parties will assume their responsibilities to develop Kurdish democracy and ensure the formation of a democratic Kurdish nation."
At the same time, the agency quoted the party as stressing that Turkish-Kurdish relations need to be reshaped, without revealing further details.
These developments come after Firat News Agency reported on Friday that the party had "successfully" held a conference to dissolve itself this week.
