💨 Abstract

The Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK), involved in a 40-year conflict with Turkey, announced it will dissolve and cease its armed struggle, following a call from its jailed leader, Abdullah Ocalan. This decision, reported by Firat news agency, is expected to significantly impact the region's political and security dynamics, particularly in Syria where Kurdish forces align with U.S. forces. The PKK's announcement is yet to receive an official response from the Turkish government.
