Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan met with pro-Kurdish politicians Pervin Buldan and Sırrı Süreyya Önder to discuss peace talks aimed at ending a 40-year insurgency. The meeting was described as positive, with hopes for increased negotiation pace. The PKK announced a ceasefire, calling for the release of their imprisoned leader Abdullah Öcalan to lead a congress for disbandment. The reconciliation effort may also aim to secure Kurdish support for Erdoğan's government beyond 2028. Teljes cikk (Euronews.com)
