COORDINATION FRAMEWORK MOVES TO RESPOND TO RUBIO’S WARNING MESSAGES, 6 MARCH

 COORDINATION FRAMEWORK MOVES TO RESPOND TO RUBIO’S WARNING MESSAGES

The Coordination Framework in Iraq is preparing to hold an emergency meeting within the next two days to discuss the details of the phone call that took place between US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani.

The meeting comes amid escalating tensions after informed sources reported that the US Secretary of State had sent warning messages that could carry direct threats. The leaders of the framework believe that these messages may reflect Washington’s intention to increase pressure on Baghdad, especially with regard to relations with Iran.

The move appears to reflect growing concern within Iraqi political circles about the implications of the new US policy under President Donald Trump’s administration, which focuses on a “maximum pressure” strategy against Tehran. The meeting appears to be an attempt to formulate a unified position that protects Iraq from any potential sanctions that may affect economic and political figures or entities.

During the phone call, the US State Department urged the Iraqi government to ensure its energy independence, which was confirmed by the department’s spokeswoman, Tammy Bruce, in an official statement.

She pointed out that Rubio and Al-Sudani discussed the importance of reducing dependence on Iran in this vital sector, while stressing the resumption of the operation of the Iraqi-Turkish pipeline as soon as possible.

This call reveals Washington’s desire to limit Iranian economic influence in Iraq, as the latter depends on Iranian gas to generate about 40% of its electricity , according to reports by the International Energy Agency for 2024.

This pressure is part of a broader policy aimed at reshaping regional balances, but it could force the Iraqi government to make difficult choices between maintaining its relations with Tehran and meeting US demands.


The leaders of the Coordination Framework see the content of Rubio’s messages as a direct threat to the stability of the political system in Iraq. Speculation is rife in Baghdad about the possibility of US sanctions that could include local banks or prominent figures, which could exacerbate the economic crises that the country is already suffering from.

This perception indicates the sensitivity of the internal political situation, as some believe that any American escalation could lead to reactions from the armed factions loyal to Iran, which have great influence in the Iraqi arena. This dynamic shows the complexity of the scene, as Al-Sudani tries to maintain a delicate balance between external pressures and internal stability.

Former US Assistant Secretary of State David Schenker confirmed during his participation in the Erbil Forum on Thursday, February 27, 2025, that Iraq is not among the main priorities of US foreign policy at the present time. He explained that the US focus is on confronting Iran, and that Iraq is seen as a secondary arena in this conflict .

This statement reinforces the impression that Washington is using Iraq as a tool in its broader strategy against Tehran, without fully paying attention to its internal needs. This raises questions about the seriousness of the strategic partnership between the two parties, especially with the ongoing security and economic challenges facing Baghdad.

According to statements by Foreign Minister Fuad Hussein, Iraq seeks to maintain a balance in its relations with the United States and Iran, while emphasizing its commitment to the security agreement with Tehran. Hussein indicated in a television interview that Baghdad is working to protect its national interests amid increasing international pressure.

This position reflects the great challenge facing Al-Sudani in managing complex foreign relations, as Iraq has a long border with Iran that extends for more than 1,400 kilometers, making cooperation with it a geopolitical necessity. However, reliance on American support, whether military or economic, puts the government in an unenviable position.


STATUS OF THE RV , PART. 4 BY MNT GOAT, 6 MARCH

STATUS OF THE RV , PART. 4 

😊In yet another optimistic article about Iraq titled “IRAQI OPPOSITION LOBBIES IN AMERICA: JOE WILSON AND THE MEGA CAMPAIGN AS AN EXAMPLE – URGENT” we find an American politician bringing emphasis on Iraq. For all too long Iraq seemed to be all but ignored by the U.S. foreign policy, except for military purposes against ISIS and terrorism.

 Now we read that US Senator Joe Wilson, known for his controversial positions, announced the launch of a campaign called “MEGA”, in direct imitation of former US President Donald Trump’s “MAGA” (Make America Great Again) campaign.

  Addison Graves “Joe” Wilson Sr. (born July 31, 1947) is an American politician and attorney serving as the U.S. representative for South Carolina’s 2nd congressional district since 2001. A member of the Republican Party.

Wilson’s campaign, according to what he posted on his account on the X platform, aims to “support the Iraqi people to make Iraq great again” , in reference to the October 2019 protests, which he described as “a non-sectarian movement abandoned by US President Joe Biden.” So, we can yet more aspects of the U.S. policy towards Iraq slowly changing for the better too. It is  not that Trump does not want wealth and prosperity for Iraq too but he is setting the first priority and this must come from dealing with Iran first. If you don’t deal with Iran first the chaos in the middle east will never end. It is time for it to end and then the U.S. can concentrate more on its partners in the middle east.

The article tells us that nn recent years, Iraqi lobby groups have become active in the United States, seeking to influence American decision-makers regarding policies towards Iraq. 

These lobbies are divided between supporters of the current Iraqi government and opponents who seek to change the political system in Baghdad. Among the American figures who adopt this approach, Senator Joe Wilson stands out targeting what he called “liberating Iraq from Iran”, which sparked widespread controversy in American and Iraqi circles. I am sure you all can see why this would be controversial for Iraq since Iraq and Iran are tided together both culturally, ethnically and by trade (economics).

Wilson’s statements and his new campaign of MEGA for Iraq faced sharp reactions from American commentators on social media platforms, with some criticizing him, saying that “American politicians should focus on their internal issues instead of interfering in Iraq’s affairs.” The campaign also angered some American political circles, as some considered it an “irresponsible attempt to reignite chaos” in a country suffering from major political and security complications. I will add that change is hard and sometimes faced with strong resistance. Are any of these negative political figures invested in the corruption schemes with Iraq?

 How must money have they gained from holding back Iraq and its currency reforms? Yes, you have to take comments like these against change with a grain of salt as you don’t know what is behind them. In another note you would also think that the democrats in the U.S. would be happy and jumping up and down about all the exposure of corruption and cutting waste out of the U.S. budget. But are they? Why not? Go figure who is behind it.

MNT GOAT : What would happen if Iraq did institute a digital currency prior to the RV?, 6 MARCH

 MNT GOAT 

What would happen if Iraq did institute a digital currency prior to the RV?

This action would impede and slow down the necessity to RV since they would not have to conduct the project to delete the zeros and there would be no longer pressures to do so. On the other hand, it would force the turn-in of all hard cash to the banks for credit and thus finally all this cash back into the banking system for liquidity. 

But there are other ways of doing this too, as we are now seeing taking place. Will the people of Iraq accept this lack of FREEDOM of privacy of their expenditures and the government controlling their every dinar spent? Of course, many Iraqi may feel this might be a step up from what they now have, without realizing all the future ramifications it will cause. 

Bottom line  is I am not worried about this transition to a fully digital currency unless I firmly hear the CBI come out with a directive policy to begin the process. I don’t think this is going to happen until we are way out of this investment and the dinar has already been reinstated.

I want to bring you one more article and this one is from the past. I stumbled on this one while searching for the past articles on the digital currency stuff. Take a look at it as it is very interesting and tells us so much of Ali Al-Alaq and his mind set for the dinar. Look at the date….. 

So, in today’s news we just read that from Saturday Alaq said and I quote from Alaq that “IRAQ AMONG THE BEST IN THE WORLD IN CONTROLLING THE SALE OF THE DOLLAR”. Really?  So, you see some the news is just hopeful. The CBI does have plans but it might change as the dynamics of the politics change too. 

This was during the first Trump administration. If the CBI could really control the dollar so well than after 7 years from this article you would think the CBI could have the dinar equal to the dollar by now? Folks it's been 7 years since this article. 

Are you listening what I am trying to tell you? I am not trying to discourage you but to wake you up to the reality of what is really happening in Iraq.  There are some strange things happening in Iraq!

STATUS OF THE RV , PART. 3 , 5 MARCH

 STATUS OF THE RV , PART. 3 

😊We also see more of the U.S. stance on other issue too in dealing with Iraq in the article titled “WASHINGTON ADVISES THE IRAQI POLITICAL SYSTEM TO LIFT ITS HAND FROM 5 INSTITUTIONS.. LEARN ABOUT THEM”. The United States advised Iraq to lift the political system’s hand from 5 major official institutions, in order to avoid potential US sanctions .

That “the institutions included in the American advice are: the National Oil Company SOMO, the Central Bank of Iraq, the intelligence and counter-terrorism services, and the security services.”

 It is explained that “these institutions were established with American support and funding to be part of the structure of the Iraqi state and not the government,” noting that “the political system’s interference in their work threatens to impose more sanctions that may directly affect the Iraqi economy.” 

In other words the U.S. is telling Iraq that these institutions are for the people not for the political purposes of the government.

😊In the articles titled “INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES ARE EXPANDING.. FAO IS PREPARING TO TRANSFORM INTO THE LARGEST INDUSTRIAL CITY IN THE MIDDLE EAST” and “MF CONFIRMS SUPPORT FOR IRAQ IN DEVELOPING FINANCIAL POLICIES” we learn as explained that the development road will transform Iraq into a pivotal commercial center linking the East and the West through advanced industrial cities extending from Al-Faw to the Turkish border,” 

noting that Al-Faw city will include giant industrial projects including petrochemical plants, power stations, water desalination and liquefied gas facilities, in addition to residential and tourism projects, which will contribute to stimulating trade exchange and creating more than one million job opportunities. I is also stressed that “the project will contribute to reducing the time it takes to transport goods from China to Europe to less than 22 days, which will enhance Iraq’s position as a global logistics center.”  

 All I can say is WOW! WOW! WOW!. How can the dinar ever stay at 1/6 of a penny in the near future?

 So with all the news of the U.S. policy towards Iran complicating Iraq currency reform which is caught in the middle of this issue, we can clearly see the Iraqi dinar is being artificially suppressed and will not come out of this “coma” until the spiders web with Iran and middle east terrorism is broken. Our prophets keep telling us this web will be broken and there will be a grave surrender of wealth and freedom from this middle eastern region. God told us “there will be a break in the financial system when you see the situation at its worst”. This is God’s words not mine. Are you listening?

TIDBIT FROM JEFF, 6 MARCH

 Jeff 

 They did not have any currency auctions as of...Monday March 3rd.  Now, what were the 2 critical things the central bank states to us through the year '24 (which by the way, you're still in) -

 End the use of the dollar and end the currency auctions.  Last Thursday/Friday they said the citizens debit cards would no longer be able to access US dollar cash outside the country of Iraq. 

 That's one way of exiting the dollar.  They also said the currency auctions would end.  When does their fiscal period end?  The very end of March.  When does the new budget period start April 1st.  Boom there you go!  Rate is changing in March folks!

The head of the parliamentary finance committee, MP Atwan Al-Atwani, expected the budget tables to reach parliament in mid-March, while indicating that there is a discussion about contract employees who deserve to be appointed.

Al-Atwani told the “Under Two Lines” program, which is broadcast on Al-Iraqiya News, followed by the Iraqi News Agency (INA), that “the financial and economic situation in the country is good,” indicating that “the oil countries are experiencing a state of constant anxiety about falling prices.”

INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES ARE EXPANDING.. FAO IS PREPARING TO TRANSFORM INTO THE LARGEST INDUSTRIAL CITY IN THE MIDDLE EAST 

The Ministry of Industry and Minerals revealed plans on Monday to establish giant industrial projects in the city of Al-Faw, which will make it one of the largest industrial cities in the Middle East, as part of the Strategic Development Road project.  

The Deputy Chairman of the Industrial Cities Authority at the Ministry, Riyadh Jassim Kazim, said in a statement to the official newspaper that “the technical designs for the project will be completed soon, as work is proceeding according to well-studied plans, with the completion of the initial designs and the addition of some modifications to ensure the project is implemented in the best possible way.”  

He explained that “the development road will transform Iraq into a pivotal commercial center linking the East and the West through advanced industrial cities extending from Al-Faw to the Turkish border,” noting that Al-Faw city will include giant industrial projects including petrochemical plants, power stations, water desalination and liquefied gas facilities, in addition to residential and tourism projects, which will contribute to stimulating trade exchange and creating more than one million job opportunities.  

Kazem also stressed that the project will contribute to reducing the time it takes to transport goods from China to Europe to less than 22 days, which will enhance Iraq’s position as a global logistics center.  

He pointed out that the preparation of the project’s designs faced some obstacles, such as conflicts on the road’s path with agricultural and economic projects, but coordination was made with local governments and those conflicts were removed, which allowed the preparation of the final technical designs for the project.  
He concluded by saying that “the development road will be a fundamental pillar in diversifying the Iraqi economy and reducing dependence on oil, so that Iraq becomes a pivotal part of the international trade map, benefiting from its modern infrastructure and its ability to connect continents.”

STATUS OF THE RV , PART. 2 BY MNT GOAT, 6 MARCH

 STATUS OF THE RV , PART. 2

😊Now let’s take a look at the U.S. policy towards Iraq right now under the Trump administration. In the article titled “COORDINATION FRAMEWORK MOVES TO RESPOND TO RUBIO’S WARNING MESSAGES”

The Coordination Framework in Iraq is preparing to hold an emergency meeting within the next two days to discuss the details of the phone call that took place between US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani.

 You remember this past article on this topic? Now we are getting more details. We are told the move appears to reflect growing concern within Iraqi political circles “about the implications of the new US policy under President Donald Trump’s administration, which focuses on a “maximum pressure” strategy against Tehran”.

The meeting appears to be an attempt to formulate a unified position that protects Iraq from any potential sanctions that may affect economic and political figures or entities. The question I ask now is will Iraq avoid serious sanctions. We already witnessed a major move (see previous paragraph) by the CBI in cutting off yet another avenue of cash that could get to Iraq through the parallel market. The article also tells us that at time “that Iraq is not among the main priorities of US foreign policy at the present time. He explained that the US focus is on confronting Iran, and that Iraq is seen as a secondary arena in this conflict.”.

Again, I will add that we are not likely to see any reinstatement of the dinar until Iran is broken. I mean the government leadership toppled and the terrorist networks abolished. Please also include this in your prayers as I am told by my CBI contact this must take place to move ahead in Iraq and free Iraq. As long as Iran exists in its present state, the U.S. is NOT going to release (or free) its dinar to the world. I believe the reasons why should be apparent to everyone and so we should all put on our “big boy” pants, suck it up and realize what is actually taking place and move out of this fantasy intel guru world.

MILITIAMAN: Iraq has done all the things NEEDED to BE IN compliance with THE IMF!!

 


MF CONFIRMS SUPPORT FOR IRAQ IN DEVELOPING FINANCIAL POLICIES, 5 MARCH

 MF CONFIRMS SUPPORT FOR IRAQ IN DEVELOPING FINANCIAL POLICIES

The Ministry of Finance confirmed, on Sunday, that the Iraqi government is committed to achieving financial sustainability that supports development and stimulates investment, while the International Monetary Fund expressed its support for Iraq in developing financial policies.

A statement by the ministry, seen by Al-Eqtisad News, stated that “the Iraqi delegation concluded its meetings with the International Monetary Fund in Amman during the period from February 24 to 26, 2025, with the participation of the Minister of Finance, Taif Sami Muhammad, and the Governor of the Central Bank of Iraq,” noting that the economic performance of Iraq and the prospects for sustainable growth were discussed, amid appreciation for the progress made.”

The statement added, “The discussions, in which experts from the Ministries of Finance, Planning, Oil, Electricity and the Central Bank participated, focused on macroeconomic indicators, where a remarkable growth in non-oil GDP was recorded at 5% for the year 2024, driven by the expansion of the agricultural sector and the increase in public spending, with growth expected to continue at 3.5% in 2025.

The mission confirmed, according to the statement, that “these figures reflect an improvement in economic diversification and a reduction in dependence on oil, which enhances the stability of the national economy, in addition to reviewing actual expenditures and expected revenues for the year 2024 and expectations for the year 2025 and how to finance the deficit.”

The statement added that “the meeting discussed updating the public debt strategy with mechanisms that ensure public financial sustainability and enhance investor confidence in government bonds. The IMF also stressed the importance of developing the banking sector to support investments and attract foreign capital, which contributes to creating a more stable financial environment.”

The Fund confirmed, according to the statement, “its support for Iraq in developing financial policies by providing advisors and experts to assist the Ministry of Finance in managing public debt and improving the tax system in line with the requirements of economic growth.”

The statement added, “Within the framework of enhancing financial stability, it was agreed to intensify efforts to expand cooperation with foreign correspondent banks, which facilitates foreign trade financing operations, in addition to enhancing the use of the Iraqi dinar in major transactions, which enhances the strength of the national currency.”

The meetings stressed the continued progress in financial and economic reforms, reflecting the Iraqi government’s commitment to achieving financial sustainability that supports development and stimulates investment, in light of an ongoing strategic partnership with the International Monetary Fund.

STATUS OF THE RV , PART. 1 BY MNT GOAT, 5 MARCH

STATUS OF THE RV

Welcome to my first Newsletter in March. I have some very interesting news for you today. In fact some it may amaze you and it may seem weird too. Today’s commentary is going to be long.

 So, grab a nice hot cup of something to sip on, relax and let it all soak in as you read. Read it again if you don’t understand. All of what I bring you today is so VERY IMPORTANT to truly understand where Iraq is right now and what is holding back the RV as we all wait for it. 

I can’t remember so many “happy faces” in any other Newsletter. If I refer to some news from a past Newsletter go to the Archives and re-read it so it all makes sense. 

I warn you again against all this stupidity in this RV investment community, there is no “secret” four letter agencies telling anyone the RV is going to happen tomorrow or tonight.

 As you finish my commentary today you should understand completely why I keep telling you this. We must stick to the FACTS and get over these lies from these internet intel gurus.  Yes, there is just so much news pouring in from Iraq. 

Why does anyone have to lie and make things up? In the midst of the issues with Iran and the U.S., things are still moving ahead in Iraq. It may be an uphill battle for Al-Sudani and Al Ali-Alaq but they is still aggressively moving forward.

 Will they finally get help from any U.S. politicians to move this progress ahead more? So, let’s hold our horses, the budget schedules are not even expected to get sent to parliament for review until mid-March. Even when they do, I assure you we are not going to see the new RV rate. The rate is not in the budget and we are not waiting for these damned schedules to come out for the RV. Get it? Why do we pin the RV to any single event?

Today’s news is two-fold. On one hand it will demonstrate yet more progress Iraq has made in the advancement to the international scene and how the dinar is finally rising in relation to the dollar.  ;

Yes, the dinar is finally slowly rising. It should not be long before Iraq rises to the top of the middle east and they advance in the rest of the world in global stature.

Is the CBI and the U.S. efforts finally working to break the parallel market? They have to weed out all these small nuances of how they are obtaining the cash dollar. There is also more evidence of the new U.S. policy towards Iraq as this becomes more and more apparent as the president Trump administration moves forward.

 But some U.S. politicians are also stepping up and realizing what is going on in Iraq too. One of these politicians has contacted me about concerns and has been reading my blog all along. This has motivated this politician to seek answers as to what is really going on in Iraq. I guess I am hitting a sensitive note for some, finally!

There is yet another issue that recently surfaced again. This issue concerns a digital currency for Iraq. 

You may ask will they actually do such a thing in Iraq? 

Remember my many presentations on the Pros and Cons of a digital currency? Does the CBI favor this move? Is it being driven by the CBI?

 Is it in the BAST interest of the people or just the to control the people or the banking sector? What is Donald Trump’s stance on a digital currency?

 Do you think the US Treasury would even allow such a thing for Iraq? These are questions that need answers as this effort will very likely affect our investment, if Iraq does move forward with a digital currency. I want to also cover this topic in detail today. You have to pay close attention to this one….

😊So, first I wanted to bring your attention to the article titled “REASONS FOR STOPPING CASH WITHDRAWALS OUTSIDE IRAQ BY TBI”.

 The Central Bank of Iraq and financial institutions have previously taken similar measures to limit the exit of the dollar through unofficial means,” 

 that “some parties were using electronic payment cards to withdraw cash from abroad with money purchased at the official exchange rate inside Iraq, then reselling it at higher prices in the parallel market, which constitutes a type of currency smuggling.

  Although in another article on this subject matter from my 02/27 Newsletter did not specifically tell us, we now find out more information on this topic and the reason why they cut off CASH from these cards outside Iraq. Is exactly as my contact from the CBI told me and I told you back then as for the reason. But here it is in writing….

 In the article titled “IRAQ AMONG THE BEST IN THE WORLD IN CONTROLLING THE SALE OF THE DOLLAR” , the Governor of the Central Bank, Ali Al-Alaq, confirmed today, Saturday, “that Iraq has become one of the best countries in the world in controlling the sale of the dollar”. 

Really? I thought this article funny in a way that he would come out and say this. Then why is the CBI having so many problems breaking the parallel market? Are other countries really much worse off and backwards?

IRAQI OPPOSITION LOBBIES IN AMERICA: JOE WILSON AND THE MEGA CAMPAIGN AS AN EXAMPLE – URGENT, 5 MARCH

 IRAQI OPPOSITION LOBBIES IN AMERICA: JOE WILSON AND THE MEGA CAMPAIGN AS AN EXAMPLE – URGENT

In recent years, Iraqi lobby groups have become active in the United States, seeking to influence American decision-makers regarding policies towards Iraq. These lobbies are divided between supporters of the current Iraqi government and opponents who seek to change the political system in Baghdad. Among the American figures who adopt this approach, Senator Joe Wilson stands out, who recently launched a political campaign called “MEGA”, targeting what he called “liberating Iraq from Iran”, which sparked widespread controversy in American and Iraqi circles.

Joe Wilson and the Mega Campaign

US Senator Joe Wilson, known for his controversial positions, announced the launch of a campaign called “MEGA”, in direct imitation of former US President Donald Trump’s “MAGA” (Make America Great Again) campaign. Wilson’s campaign, according to what he posted on his account on the X platform, aims to “support the Iraqi people to make Iraq great again”, in reference to the October 2019 protests, which he described as “a non-sectarian movement abandoned by US President Joe Biden.”

The statements come as part of a series of recent posts by Wilson, which, according to Fox News, included “direct threats” calling for action inside Iraq to bring about political change.

Controversy and American Reactions

Wilson’s statements and his new campaign faced sharp reactions from American commentators on social media platforms, with some criticizing him, saying that “American politicians should focus on their internal issues instead of interfering in Iraq’s affairs.”

The campaign also angered some American political circles, as some considered it an “irresponsible attempt to reignite chaos” in a country suffering from major political and security complications.

Iraqi Lobbies in Washington and Their Influence

Wilson’s campaign is part of a broader landscape of Iraqi lobby groups active in Washington, working to influence US policy toward Baghdad. These groups can be divided into:

1. Groups loyal to the Iraqi government: working to strengthen relations between Baghdad and Washington, and defending the Iraqi government in the face of American pressure.

2. Opposition lobbies: consisting of former Iraqi politicians, activists, and some American figures who see the need to change the Iraqi political system, and demand stricter American measures towards Baghdad, such as imposing sanctions or supporting protest movements.

3. Kurdish lobbies: seeking to maintain Washington’s support for the Kurdistan Region, especially with regard to the oil file and relations with Türkiye and Iran.

Iraq is strongly present in American politics

Joe Wilson’s “MEGA” campaign reflects a growing trend among some American politicians toward intervening in Iraqi affairs, whether by supporting protests or demanding broad political changes. Despite the criticism he has faced, these moves reflect the continued influence of Iraqi lobbies in Washington, whether from the Iraqi government or its opponents, making Iraq a strongly present issue in American politics, despite the passage of more than two decades since the American invasion.

Iraqi Foreign Ministry: Ocalan's call is an important step to achieve stability in the region


2/27/2025

 

The Iraqi Ministry of Foreign Affairs welcomed, on Friday, the announcement of the leader of the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK), Abdullah Ocalan, and his call for the party to lay down its arms, considering this step positive and important in achieving stability in the region.

The ministry stressed in its statement that this initiative represents a very important development in terms of enhancing security, not only in Iraq, but in all areas where there is a presence of PKK militants in the Kurdistan Region and some other cities. It also stressed that political solutions and dialogue are the best way to address differences and end conflicts in a way that serves the interests of all parties and enhances peaceful coexistence.

The Foreign Ministry expressed its support for all efforts aimed at resolving problems through dialogue, hoping to accelerate practical steps to ensure the end of the Kurdistan Workers' Party's carrying of weapons.

It also renewed the Iraqi government's commitment to bilateral relations with neighboring Türkiye, within the framework of historical and geographical ties and common interests, stressing its commitment to the principle of non-interference.

Abdullah Ocalan on Thursday called on the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) he founded to lay down arms and dissolve itself, in a historic declaration issued in Istanbul after four decades of conflict.

"All armed groups must lay down their arms and the PKK must dissolve itself," he said in the announcement read by a delegation of pro-Kurdish Peoples' Democracy Party (HDP) lawmakers who visited him in his prison on Imrali Island off Istanbul earlier on Thursday.

He stressed that he "bears historical responsibility for this call."

Ocalan's long-awaited letter was read in Kurdish and then in Turkish in front of a large photo of him holding a white sheet of paper, in a hotel in central Istanbul, attended by a crowd of journalists and the "Saturday Mothers," Kurdish women who demonstrate every week over the disappearance of relatives by the authorities.

The Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) was founded in 1978 and launched an armed campaign against Ankara in 1984 to establish a Kurdish state. The conflict has left more than 40,000 dead since 1984.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his government did not immediately comment on Ocalan's announcement.
