The PKK is ending its long-standing conflict with the Turkish state after 40 years and 40,000 deaths, marking a significant moment for Turkey and its Kurdish minority. While some locals express skepticism about the government's intentions, others hope for peace and an amnesty for PKK fighters. The conflict has deeply affected the Kurdish city of Diyarbakir, with many residents yearning for an end to violence. The PKK's decision follows a call from its jailed leader, Abdullah Ocalan, for democracy. Supporters believe his release is crucial for achieving peace.
