PKK and Iranian govt to support each other
PKK and Iranian govt sign an agreement that PKK has suspended military operations inside Iran; in return, Iranian govt will support PKK especially in Iraq.
World Bulletin / News Desk
Local news agencies are reporting that the latest tensions between the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) and the Kurdistan Democratic Party of Iran (KDPI) have uncovered a secret agreement between the PKK and the Iranian government.
A source from the KDPI told BasNews that the PKK and Iranian government signed the accord three years ago and the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) Representative to Iran Nazim Dabbagh is fully aware of it.
According to the agreement, the PKK has suspended military operations inside Iran and prevents other Iranian opposition parties from carrying out any hostile action against Iran; in return, the Iranian government will support PKK especially in Iraq.
The source explained that the KDPI intended no military operations near the KRG borders with Iran as it is committed to the security of the Kurdistan Region. “We had only planned to establish a reorganising base in the area which led to the clashes on Saturday.”
“We are certain that the PKK was ordered by the Iranian government to stop the KDPI because they were concerned about military operations following the latest protests in Mahabad and Sardash, in Iranian Kurdistan.”
Muhammad Salih Qaderi, a KDPI politburo official, told BasNews that the clashes have been suspended but the disputes still exist. “KRG officials have played a vital role in settling the clashes.”
Qaderi said that it will be considered as a “national betrayal” if the PKK has signed any agreement with the Iranian government.

What's your take on this KDPI vs PKK thingy? Seems Iran uses pkk against krg, which is supported by Turkey.
And if the article is true, it explains why and how Iran 'heroically crushed' the PJAK some years ago and managed to 'keep them silenced' in Iran. wouldn't be surprised.
