00:00The Kurdish militant group, the Kurdistan Workers' Party, also known as the PKK,
00:07announced its decision to disband and disarm.
00:10The decision comes in a move towards ending a four-decade-long armed conflict with Turkey.
00:18The PKK launched its insurgency against Turkey in 1984 in an effort to establish an independent Kurdish state.
00:26The conflict spread to northern Iraq and northern Syria and saw Turkey carry out incursions into these neighboring regions.
00:35A few months ago in February, the group's leader Abdullah Öcalan, who has been in jail since 1999,
00:42urged the group to convene at a congress and formally decide to disband.
00:47Despite his imprisonment, Öcalan still holds significant influence in the Kurdish movement.
00:52The group agreed to terminate its activities as it claims it's been successful in challenging policies that sought to suppress Kurdish rights.
01:02In March, the group had already called for a ceasefire but attached certain conditions,
01:08including the creation of a legal framework for peace negotiations.
