The Basque terrorist group ETA, which over 43 years has been responsible for 829 killings in Spain and France, announced on Thursday that it has decided to put an end to its violent struggle and called on the governments of both countries to initiate a dialogue that would lead to a peaceful political solution for a Basque independent state.(...)

(...) Leaders of the outlawed Batasuna party, ETA's political wing, along with radical abertzale

left members, also joined the call on Tuesday for ETA to lay down its arms.

Addressing the nation, Prime Minister José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero welcomed the announcement, but said that the victims and violence can never be forgotten.

"Ours will be a democracy without terrorism but never without memory," Zapatero said
