Topic: Turkey’s peace with Kurds splinters as car bomb kills soldiers (Read 364 times)
Turks and Kurds will arrive definitely someday at one agreement. Kurds have the right to leave their life in their way. They are not Turks. They will fight always for their rights and one day the international community will hear them. It is the same with the Armenians. Turks have hidden for hundred years the genocide made to them but the last years every country is speak about this and Turks can't do nothing. The same will be with the kurds. The right will emerge one day.
Turkey most likely got involved in the fight against IS to get a license to kill Kurds. The turkish government was in the bed with IS in the last years, and seen IS a good tool against Syria (and an allegedly planned oil pipeline between Iran, North Iraq (Kurdistan) and the Syrian ports. After both the iraqi and syrian kurds stabilized a practically independent state that must be worrying for for the turks, so I guess the primary goal is destabilizing the kurd groups, especially the PPK. Weakening the IS is just a secondary objective.
Kurds are also humans. The Turks deprive them of all the basic human rights, including the right to speak their language and the right to practice their customs. The Turks even refused to allow the shipment of weapons to the Kurdish rebels in Kobanea few months ago, when they were surrounded by the ISIS. An independent Kurdistan is the only solution.
he fragile peace process between the Turkish government and the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ party, or PKK, appeared to be on the brink of collapse after two Turkish soldiers were killed and four others were injured in a car bomb attack that Ankara blamed on Kurdish rebels.
The blast came after Turkey launched a second round of air strikes against PKK positions in northern Iraq on Sunday following a similar one on Friday which also targeted Islamic State in Syria, in retaliation for a string of violent attacks last week for which Turkey blames both groups – themselves fierce rivals.
Turkey asked Nato on Sunday night to hold an extraordinary council meeting on Tuesday under article four of the treaty, which invokes consultation but does not automatically trigger military action on the part of fellow Nato members. According to a statement by the Turkish foreign ministry, the meeting aims at informing Turkey’s Nato allies about the ongoing operations against Isis in Syria and the PKK in northern Iraq
