Basque group Eta says armed campaign is over

The Basque separatist group Eta says it has called a “definitive cessation” to its campaign of bombings and shootings. In a statement provided to the BBC, Eta called on the Spanish and French governments to respond with “a process of direct dialogue”. The declaration, if followed through, would bring an end to Eta’s campaign of violence, which has lasted more than 40 years and killed more than 800 people. Spain’s PM said the move was “a victory for democracy, law and reason”. Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero gave a victory speech, says the BBC’s Sarah Rainsford in Madrid. After more than 40 years of bomb attacks and assassinations, Mr Zapatero said Spain was now experiencing “legitimate satisfaction” at the victory over terror.
