Kurdistan Freedom Party, (Kurdish: پارتی ئازادیی کوردستان‎ – Parti Azadi Kurdistan), abbreviated as PAK, is a Kurdish political party active in both Iranian and Iraqi Kurdistan which seeks the attainment of Kurdish national rights within a democratic federal republic of Iran. The group was founded in 1991[1] although it was first called Revolutionary Union of Kurdistan and changed its name to PAK shortly before 2007.[2] One of the leading figures of the group is Hussein Yazdanpanah, often named as secretary general of the Party.[3]
