What is another word for Kurdistan Workers Party?
Pronunciation: [kˈɜːdɪstˌan wˈɜːkəz pˈɑːti] (IPA) 
The Kurdistan Workers Party, also known as PKK, has been labeled a terrorist organization by Turkey, the United States, and the European Union. However, supporters of the group refer to them as a freedom movement that seeks autonomy for the Kurdish people in Turkey. The PKK has gone through several name changes over the years, which include Kurdistan Freedom and Democracy Congress, Kurdistan Freedom Falcons, and People's Defense Forces. Other groups affiliated with the PKK include the Kurdistan Communities Union and the Democratic Union Party. Despite its controversial status, the PKK continues to be a dominant force in the Kurdish resistance movement, with its influence extending beyond Turkey's borders.
