The Turkish constitution bans political organisation along ethnic lines,
making Kurdish rights a sensitive issue. Indeed, this was reflected in Mr
Erdogan’s announcement when he stated that Kurdish could become an elective
lesson “if enough students come together.”
National unity continues to prove evasive in Turkey with both the US and EU
and many national politicians viewing the Kurdistan Workers’ Party or PKK as
a terrorist organisation.
Violence between the Turkish army and Kurdish rebels occurs regularly with the
latest violence being reported by the state run Anadolu Agency on Tuesday as
two Turkish soldiers were killed by Kurdish rebels along the Iraqi border.
