Nowadays, the HDP and the PKK find themselves at a crossroads: They will either walk further down the path of violence or reinstate the cease-fire to maximize their gains in northern Syria and reap the benefits of peace in Turkey.

Muhittin Ataman: “The people of Turkey expect a more responsible HDP to invite the PKK to get rid of arms and withdraw from the Turkish territory.”

To give a snapshot about the latest developments involving Turkish airstrikes against ISIS and the PKK after a suicide bomber killed 32 civilians on July 21 in the Southeastern town of Suruç, Deputy General Coordinator for the Foundation for Political, Economic and Social Research (SETA) joined Al Jazeera’s Inside Story on July 28, 2015.

Muhittin Ataman said in a televised debate on France 24 that in fact the AK Party government initiated the peace process and tried to continue despite negative developments, but unfortunately, the PKK itself declared several times that the process was over.

Quite contrary to Turkey’s anti-ISIS campaign in the region, the PKK is ungratefully trying to pull the Turkish government into the chaos between ISIS and the PKK-supported PYD

Both the CHP and the MHP leadership openly state that they would rather stay in opposition than serve in the nation’s political leadership.

Turkey’s next government must reflect each party’s minimum requirements and modest goals rather than dreams of a grand transformation.

The opposition parties have come to accept that President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, the AK Party's founder and the mastermind behind the past decade's transformation, will remain a prominent figure in the political arena.
