The Kurdistan Workers' Party released the "Final Declaration," confirming the decision to dissolve the party's organization and end armed struggle. Will it work? The Kurdistan Workers' Party has several aliases, various brands.
These are old tricks. Since Ocalan was captured, they have openly shifted direction, and over the years in prison, Ocalan has consistently adhered to this line of capitulationist rhetoric. The Kurdistan Workers' Party has also publicly announced responses multiple times, and "ceasefires," with the most recent one in 2013. This is happening again.
In fact, since December 2024, when the Syrian opposition seized Damascus and drove out Assad, Turkey and its puppet forces have been attacking Kurdish armed groups in the Tishrin Dam area in Syria. Until now, more than half a year has passed, and in the direction of the Tishrin Dam, Turkey and its puppet forces have not advanced an inch.
The NATO's second-largest military power deploying F-16 fighter jets, AH-1 attack helicopters, and TB-2 armed reconnaissance drones were completely ineffective. Now, the Kurds have discarded the labels of the Kurdistan Workers' Party, the Syrian Democratic Forces, the Syrian People's Defense Forces, the Autonomous Government of North Syria, and many other fronts.
This is still the Syrian Kurdish armed forces; at the Iraqi Kurdish armed forces, there are even more labels. This is the complexity of the situation in the Middle East, one ring within another.
Recently, the slogan of the Syrian Kurdish armed forces is to call on all oppressed Kurds, Arabs, Armenians, Assyrians, Alawites, Yazidis, and others to engage in struggle together. Oppose fascist regimes, oppose colonialism, oppose patriarchy, oppose imperialism, and oppose capitalist exploitation stages.
