https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/uk-first-turkish-kurdish-mp-says-britain-can-help-pkk-peace-process(www.middleeasteye.net)The UK's first Turkish-Kurdish MP, Feryal Clark, has welcomed the new peace process between the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) and Ankara. She calls the PKK's decision to disband after a 40-year conflict a positive and potentially transformative move. Clark suggests that the UK can help support the process, potentially drawing lessons from its experience with Northern Ireland. She also reflects on the positive changes regarding Kurdish rights in Turkey compared to the political persecution her family fled in the 1980s.
