In this way, building of democratic nation based on the free and organized will of peoples and all identities will be realized in Rojava Kurdistan and entire Syria.”

PKK stated that this great victory in a small area has guided all the oppressed and humanity as the practice of the ideas of Kurdish leader Abdullah Öcalan and the democratic modernity theory he developed, and with the solidarity of all Kurdistan and Middle East peoples and the entire humanity for freedom and democracy.
