KURDISH officials have celebrated what they described as “a historic” moment after the Catalan parliament voted on Wednesday to recognise the Autonomous Area of North East Syria, better known as Rojava.
“The recognition is a very great achievement and confirms the completely right methodology of self-determination as a solution to the current Syrian crisis,” a Rojava statement said today.
The administration thanked “our friends in Catalonia” after 80 out of 129 parliamentarians voted in favour of a motion to recognise the semi-autonomous administration.
