KNK is relentless struggle to achieve the unity of Kurdish rank
The Kurdistan National Congress is a Kurdish national institution that has been striving for 24 years to unite the Kurdish and Kurdish ranks in the four parts of Kurdistan and in the diaspora.

It was officially announced on May 26, 1999, with the participation of more than 500 political, cultural, social and academic personalities from the four parts of Kurdistan and abroad.
Before the establishment of the Kurdistan National Congress, and in April 1995, the Parliament of Kurdistan Abroad (PKDW) was formed. Its activity was intensely directed towards Northern Kurdistan, and it did not meet the main goal of achieving Kurdish unity; Therefore, the leader Abdullah Ocalan, while he was in Italy and meeting with a number of Kurdish and Kurdish political and national figures, proposed the establishment of an entity that works to unify the Kurdish ranks, to gather the Kurdish and Kurdish organizations, according to which, a general conference was held in December 1998 in Brussels, during which it was discussed How to walk in the first steps in order to establish the entity.
The conference was scheduled to officially establish the entity on Newroz 1999, but the international conspiracy against the leader Abdullah Ocalan, on February 15, 1999, postponed the efforts and endeavors to establish it, and after the arrest of the leader Abdullah Ocalan and in the first meeting with a female lawyer in April 1999 He asked whether it was established or not, so a Preparatory Committee was formed from the political forces and Kurdish national personalities in order to hold a general conference that includes everyone.
The Preparatory Committee met with most of the Kurdish and Kurdish parties and forces, but some parties made it clear that they were not ready to hold such a conference. Therefore, the Kurdistan National Congress sought, during the first and second decades, to increase the sense of patriotism and nationalism and unite the ranks to confront the dangers threatening the Kurdish and Kurdish people, and was able, to a large extent, to unify the ranks of the Kurdish people in many Kurdish issues, and perhaps the resistance of Kobani, and the bravery of the Kurdish people in Shengal, Makhmur and Kirkuk in the face of ISIS, and then the Resistance of the Age in Afrin and the general rally of the Kurdish people and Kurdistan today, around the People’s Defense Forces is a good example of that.
