Spokesperson Esmaeil Baqaei expressed hope that the completion of the process would contribute to greater stability and peace in Turkey and the broader region.
This week, the Kurdish militant group known as the PKK announced it would cease operations under the name "PKK," marking what many are calling the end of a decades-long armed insurgency against the Turkish state in pursuit of Kurdish rights and independence.
