The Democratic Party of Iranian Kurdistan (PDKI) was founded in the city of Mahabad in Iranian Kurdistan on August 16, 1945. Since there are other nations in Iran, the PDKI supports their struggle to achieve their national rights and regards them a
s strategic allies in pursuit of ending dictatorship and brining about a federal democracy that reflects the rights and interest of the country’s diverse national communities. To this end, the PDKI co-founded the Congress of Nationalities for a Federal Iran (CNFI) with organizations representing the Azeri, Balouchi, Turkmen, and Arab nations in Iran. CNFI, which is one of the main opposition groups to the sectarian theocracy in Iran, believes that a federal system of government would accommodate the different nationalities’ quest for self-rule within a free, united and democratic Iran. The PDKI is the official representative of Iranian Kurdistan in the UNPO and has representatives in many European countries, the United States, Canada, Australia, and organizations and institutions like the UN, EU and SI.
