On May 12, following an extensive congress, the PKK (The Kurdish Workers Party) released a statement announcing their intention to dissolve and end their armed struggle against the Turkish State. This momentous statement comes almost 3 months after the similar call was announcement by Abdullah Ocalan, the party's ideological leader, who remains in captivity in Istanbul. To get more context about this and understand what exactly this declaration entails, two FTP hosts, Aydin and Karena, sat with returning guest Dilan, a kurdish academic and organizer who has spent the last decade engaging with the Kurdish struggle. Their conversation is a deep-dive that goes far beyond the headlines and lackluster coverage of the mainstream media.
