National Security Council spokesman Brian Hughes described the call as "a significant development," expressing hope that it "will help ease Turkish allies' concerns regarding US partners in the fight against ISIS in northeastern Syria." Hughes further added that the US believes this move could contribute to peace in "this troubled region."

Öcalan, in his historic announcement, urged his group to lay down its arms and disband, stating, "Hold your congress and make a decision... all groups must lay down their weapons, and the PKK must disband."

The historic announcement was made in Istanbul and was followed by a visit from lawmakers of the pro-Kurdish Peoples' Democratic Party (HDP), who had visited Öcalan in prison earlier on Thursday.
