The group of 30 members burned their weapons in a cauldron in Iraq. The group has been fighting with Turkey for 40 years.

The process in Turkey was initiated in October by Devlet Bahceli, a firebrand ultranationalist politician who has usually opposed any concessions to Kurdish identity or rights.
