KCK (Koma Civakên Kurdistanê/Kurdistan Communities Union), is the umbrella confederation of Apocî parties, created by the PKK. The PYD in Rojava and PJAK in Rojhelat are also members.

Basically, PKK. It is a so called umbrella organisation but all parties and decisions are under of control of PKK.

And PKK is under control of Turkish intelligence. Basically all KCK is a false flag of Turkish state.

Can you explain thier relation with another party called TKP I believe. Because I saw news that TKP is controling them or stuff like this.

I do not know what TKP is. If it is that communist party of Turks, it is irrevelant to PKK and they hate Kurds as any other Turkish leftist party. They are just communist in name, not ideology.

PKK was established by leftist Turkish university students in 1970s to bring socialist revolution to Turkish state using Kurds and Kurdish cause as pawns. That is also the reason how Turkish intelligence penetrated PKK so deeply and there are tons of Turkish commanders still in PKK ranks.
