Turkey advances peace with PKK disarmament plan in landmark vote
Turkey’s parliament approved a 12‑article law offering conditional pardons and disarmament procedures for PKK fighters after the group disbands and surrenders its weapons, in a landmark move aimed at ending four decades of violence that spilled into Iraq and Syria. Full effect depends on PKK disarmament and judicial leniency processes; the measure could reshape regional dynamics and bolster President Erdoğan, though critics warn that legislation alone won’t guarantee lasting peace or democracy.
