In an interview with Rudaw English, Hama Nazif Ghaderi, head of the PDKI’s public relations department and a member of its executive committee, stated that the PDKI would not lay down its weapons nor abandon its struggle for Kurdish rights. He said that the weapons the Peshmerga have are used to protect the Kurdish people against repression by the Iranian regime.

Ghaderi added that neither the Iraqi federal government nor the Kurdistan Regional Government had officially informed the party of any decision to expel Iranian Kurdish opposition groups from the Kurdistan Region.

He rejected Tehran’s demands as illegitimate, stating that the PDKI would not be intimidated into abandoning its cause.

He also stressed that the PDKI respects Iraq’s and the #Kurdistan Region’s sovereignty, and would not use their territory to conduct military operations.

He added that the #PDKI would continue to engage with Baghdad and Erbil through dialogue and that both governments had a humanitarian responsibility to protect Iranian Kurdish political refugees and oppose Iranian intervention.

Statement of Gratitude from the Alliance of Political Parties of Iranian Kurdistan on the Success of the 16 September General Strike

Proud and steadfast people of Kurdistan!

On the fourth anniversary of the martyrdom of Jina Amini, and in commemoration of the martyrs and the achievements of the "Jina – Jin, Jiyan, Azadî" movement, the general strike of 16 September was carried out successfully, as a decisive response and an unequivocal stance.

This general strike took place at a time when the regime of the Islamic Republic of Iran had deployed its full military and security capacity to militarise the cities of Kurdistan and to bring pressure and threats of every kind to bear on bazaar traders and the public. Yet the strong will of the people of Kurdistan and the responsible stance of shopkeepers and traders handed the authorities a defeat. It should be noted that the support for this call from dozens of political parties and organisations, women's organisations and civil society across Kurdistan and Iran, together with the participation of a number of political prisoners through hunger strike, constitutes an important asset for joint work and solidarity in our struggle against the Islamic Republic, at every opportunity and in every place.

The Alliance of Political Parties of Iranian Kurdistan, beyond honouring the steadfastness of the Kurdish nation and thanking the people for their stance and unity in carrying out the 16 September strike, extends its appreciation to all the political and academic figures, and in particular the Baloch, Turk, Persian, Turkmen and Arab political parties, who expressed their support for and solidarity with the strike call through messages and videos. This broad cooperation and support is a sign of Kurdistan's standing and leading role across Iran as a whole.

The political parties of Kurdistan reaffirm that they remain committed to representing and conveying the just and legitimate demands of society, and regard this unity and common cause as the guarantee of future victories.

Kari Lake is a patriot and the biggest supporter of freedom for the Iranian people and has said over and over that decision rests with the Iranian people- not with media to decide.
Reza Pahlavi was invited on air on VOA multiple times but declined. Her incredible work is why she got a promotion. She’s on the record on her support for the Iranian people - not picking any particular opposition group and these misinformation campaigns are nothing more than lies spread by useful idiots to the Islamic theocracy.

یەکەم کۆنگرەی فیدراسیۆنی نووسەرانی کوردستان- دیاسپۆرا لە وڵاتی ئاڵمان بەڕێوە چوو. ئەم کۆنگرەیە لە بەشی کۆتایی کارەکانیدا ڕێزنامەی فیدراسیۆنی نووسەرانی کوردستان- دیاسپۆرای پێشکەش بە مامۆستا عەبدوڵلا حەسەنزادە، سیاسەتمەدار و نووسەری گەورەی کورد و حیزبی دێموکرات کرد.

ڕۆژی شەممە، ٣ی گەلاوێژ لەژێر دروشمی "بەرەو وێژەیەکی کوردستانیی ڕەسەن و هاوچەرخ لە تاراوگە"، کۆنگرەی فیدراسیۆنی نووسەرانی کوردستان لە دیاسپۆرا لە وڵاتی ئەڵمان لە نزیک شاری دۆسۆلدورف، بە بەشداریی زیاتر لە دوو سەد میوان و ئەندام، لە نێویاندا هەیئەتێک لە کۆمیتەی حیزبی دیموکراتی کوردستانی ئێران لە ئاڵمان بەڕێوە چوو.

ئەم کۆنگرەیە کە بە کۆنگرەی هەژار موکریانی" ناودێرکرابوو، یەکەمین کۆنگرەی ئەم فیدراسیۆنە دوای تێپەڕبوونی سێ ساڵ لە دامەزرانی بوو. لە ڕێوڕەسمی دەسپێکی کۆنگرەکەدا شیفا بارزانی، سەرپەرشتیاری گشتیی ڕەوەندی کوردستانی، نوێنەرانی سەرۆکی هەرێمی کوردستان، وەزارەتی ڕۆشنبیریی حکوومەتی هەرێمی کوردستان و کۆنفیدراسیۆنی ڕەوەندی کوردی وتاریان پێشکەش کرد. هەروەها یەکیەتیی نووسەرانی ئاڵمان، یەکیەتیی نووسەرانی کورد و ناوەندی پێنی کوردی پەیامیان بۆ ئەم کۆنگرەیە ناردبوو کە پەیامەکانیان لەم بەشەدا خوێندرانەوە. هەر لەم ڕێوڕەسمەدا چەند بەڵگەفیلم لە بارەی مێژووی ئەدەب لە کوردستان، پێکهاتن و تێکۆشانی فیدراسیۆنی نووسەران و مێژووی ئەدەبی کورمانجی پێشان دران.

PDKI leader Mustafa Hijri met with Paul Magnette, head of the Belgian Socialist Party, at the Belgian Parliament. Hijri called on Europe to support the Iranian opposition and the overthrow of the regime, warning that the regime remains a source of terrorism and repression. Magnette expressed concern over Iran’s human rights record.

Meeting Between PDKI Delegation and Canadian Member of Parliament https://t.co/FEo8EH6uSg

[PDKI @PDKIenglish]

At the European Parliament today, PDKI Leader Mustafa Hijri delivered a clear message: Iran is not a monolithic nation state. It is a multinational country with distinct nations and identities, and lasting democracy depends on recognizing this reality.

He also emphasized ”from the PDKI’s perspective, the transition to democracy in Iran will never be complete until all national identities are formally recognized. This cannot be reduced to “minority rights” or “citizenship rights.” National identity itself must be acknowledged.

Since the founding of the modern Iranian state, these national identities have lived under the shadow of mono-national chauvinism. This is the root cause of most of Iran’s enduring crises.

Those labeled “minorities” are in fact the majority in their own ancestral lands. Kurds, and other nations within Iran’s borders, are the rightful peoples of their territories, not guests within someone else’s country.

The international community must not once again enable the construction of another centralized, chauvinistic state in Iran under a new name.

In Kurdistan, we have organized within the Alliance of political Parties of Iranian Kurdistan. Since 2003, we have also built the Congress of Nationalities for a Federal Iran, in order to present the genuine image of Iran as a multi-national, multi-cultural country.

Real change in Iran requires an inclusive front in which all identities see themselves represented. Without it, another regime in the mold of the Islamic Republic will emerge, and once again become a source of instability for the region and the world.

The path forward is a democratic, federal, and secular Iran: a civil state that is not the instrument of one nation, but the coordinator and servant of all. Gatherings like today’s at the European Parliament can mark the beginning of seeing the true Iran.”

[PDKI @PDKIenglish]

In a statement the Alliance of Political Parties of Iranian Kurdistan adress the latest attack against its member parties by underlining that the Islamic Republic of Iran has once again violated the territorial sovereignty of the Kurdistan Region, conducting drone strikes against camps housing political refugees from Iranian Kurdistan.

The fact that these attacks were carried out during an active ceasefire reaffirms what the international community has long observed: a regime whose survival depends on repression, violence, and terror, and which has never engaged in good faith with peace or political dialogue. These strikes are not a demonstration of strength. They are a symptom of a regime cornered by the will of the Kurdish people and by its own deepening political and military impasse.

In the most recent wave of attacks, the PDKI’s Azadi camp and Komala Zahmatkeshan’s Surdash camp were struck. Two Peshmerga were wounded, and Ghazal Mulan, a female Peshmerga of Komala Zahmatkeshan, was martyred.

The deliberate targeting of civilian residences and refugee facilities constitutes a clear violation of international law and the Geneva Conventions. The Alliance calls on the Federal Government of Iraq, the United States, and the United Nations to move beyond condemnation and take concrete measures to halt these aggressions, which violate the sovereignty of Iraq and the Kurdistan Region and openly defy the international legal order.

Tehran should understand that terror, intimidation, and drone warfare will not break the will of a nation pursuing its legitimate rights. These attacks will only deepen the unity of Kurdistan’s political forces and people in their struggle to end oppression and occupation. Renewing our pledge to the martyrs of the path to freedom, the Alliance reaffirms its commitment to continued struggle until the fall of the Islamic Republic and the realization of our people’s national rights.

[PDKI @PDKIenglish]

The Islamic Republic of Iran carried out a drone attack against a civilian PDKI camp near Degala. This marks the fifth attack on this camp. The camp is home to civilian families of PDKI members.

The attack follows a wave of Iranian attacks yesterday targeting PDKI’s Azadi Camp near Koya, the Sorda Camp near Sulaymaniyah, and several locations in Khalifan and Rawandiz in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq. The attack in Sulaymaniyah resulted in the martyrdom of Ghazal Mawlan, a Peshmerga of the Komala Party of Iranian Kurdistan (Zahmatkeshan), and the wounding of two additional Peshmerga.

Since the outbreak of hostilities between Iran, the United States and Israel, the Islamic Republic has launched more than 110 missiles and drones against PDKI family camps, medical facilities and educational centres on the territory of the Kurdistan Region.

The Alliance pf Political Parties of Iranian Kurdistan condemned these strikes as a direct violation of the Kurdistan Region’s political sovereignty, affirming that terror, intimidation and drone warfare will not weaken the will of the Kurdish nation to secure its legitimate rights, and will only deepen the unity of Kurdistan’s political forces and people in the struggle to end oppression.

PDKI calls on the international community, the Government of Iraq and the Kurdistan Regional Government to hold the Islamic Republic accountable for its repeated aggression against civilian sites on sovereign Iraqi and Kurdistani soil.

[PDKI @PDKIenglish]

In a second speech at the European Parliament, PDKI leder Mustafa Hijri addressed the European Parliament’s Committee on Foreign Affairs, calling for a democratic, federal, and secular alternative to Iran’s theocratic regime. Speaking in Kurdish, a deliberate assertion of a language long suppressed in Iran, Hijri framed his choice as an act of recognition for Iran’s denied nations.

Hijri described Iran’s crisis as structural: a non-civic state that has repeatedly blocked freedom, first under the monarchy’s forced Persianization and later through the religious monopolism of the Islamic Republic. He warned that the current regime poses not only a domestic but a global threat, citing its record of repression and violence as evidence of an authoritarian system beyond reform.

Presenting the PDKI’s vision, Hijri argued that true stability and unity in Iran depend on democracy, federalism, and secular governance, principles proven in diverse nations worldwide. He underscored that federalism safeguards, rather than endangers, territorial integrity by granting all peoples a genuine stake in a shared future.

Hijri also underlined that the Kurdish movement’s enduring ideals—Jin, Jiyan, Azadî (Woman, Life, Freedom), as a moral foundation for building a free and peaceful Iran rooted in justice and equality among its nations.

🔵 گزارش اختصاصی: دیدار دبیرکل حزب دموکرات با حزب سوسیالیست‌های اروپایی

کوردستان‌میدیا: روز سه‌شنبه ۲۵ فروردین‌ماه، مصطفی هجری، دبیرکل حزب دموکرات کوردستان ایران به همراه هیئتی همراه، در شهر بروکسل با «ینیک پولت»، نایب‌رئیس حزب سوسیالیست‌های اروپایی (PES) دیدار و گفت‌وگو کردند.

در این دیدار که حسام دست‌پیش، نماینده حزب در نهادهای اتحادیه اروپا، و آسو عزیزی، نماینده حزب در بلژیک نیز حضور داشتند، ینیک پولت در ابتدای سخنان خود بابت عدم حضور رئیس حزب سوسیالیست‌های اروپایی به دلیل شرکت در نشست سوسیال‌دموکرات‌ها در اسپانیا و همچنین عدم امکان استقبال حضوری از کاک مصطفی هجری عذرخواهی کرد.

سپس مصطفی هجری شرح کوتاهی از تاریخچه کلی حزب دموکرات کوردستان ایران و مبارزات ملت کورد در دوران هر دو رژیم پادشاهی و جمهوری اسلامی ایران ارائه داد. او در سخنان خود به اقدامات سرکوبگرانه جمهوری اسلامی علیه مطالبات برحق مردم، به‌ویژه کشتار دی‌ماه، و همچنین حملات موشکی و پهپادی سپاه پاسداران به محل سکونت پناهندگان کوردستان ایران در اقلیم کوردستان عراق اشاره کرد و در ادامه، تحلیلی از مطالبات ملی و اهداف مبارزاتی ملت کورد در ایران ارائه داد.

نایب‌رئیس حزب سوسیالیست‌های اروپایی (PES) نیز پس از بررسی وضعیت سیاسی خاورمیانه تأکید کرد: «ما از مطالبات ملت کورد در تمام بخش‌های کوردستان پشتیبانی می‌کنیم.» او همچنین درباره سرکوب مردم توسط جمهوری اسلامی اظهار داشت: «ما خود را حامی خواسته‌های مدنی مردم ایران می‌دانیم.»

پولت با اشاره به روابط میان سازمان متبوع خود و حزب دموکرات، خطاب به مصطفی هجری گفت: «امیدواریم روابط ما تداوم یابد و این دیدارها و تبادل‌نظرها در آینده نیز ادامه داشته باشد.»

در پایان، دو طرف آخرین وضعیت سیاسی خاورمیانه و به‌ویژه ایران را بررسی کرده و نگرانی خود را از نقض حقوق بشر در ایران و افزایش آمار اعدام زندانیان سیاسی ابراز داشتند.
