The DEM Party and Turkey’s Kurdish issue
Since the collapse of the Turkish-Kurdish Peace Process (2013-15) following President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's first major electoral setback in the June 2015 general elections, the Turkish government has continued to approach the Kurdish issue as merely a security challenge. The resumption of the violent conflict between the Turkish Armed Forces (TSK) and the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) has not only dashed the prospects for a peaceful resolution of the Kurdish issue but has also provided the nationalist conservative ruling bloc led by President Erdogan with grounds for increasing oppression against the Kurdish political movement. Meanwhile, the pro-Kurdish Peoples’ Democratic Party (HDP), now the Peoples’ Equality and Democracy Party (DEM), pursued a policy of implicit cooperation with the Turkish opposition, led by the main opposition Republican People’s Party (CHP), until the aftermath of the general elections in May 2023. Viewing the election outcome as the collapse of this long-standing strategy, DEM Party appeared to have opted for a “third way” approach, aiming to distance itself from both the ruling and opposition blocs so it could act autonomously. However, the recent local elections, held on March 31, 2024, which saw a major victory for the CHP, introduced a new dynamic for all political actors and questions in Turkey, including those concerning the DEM Party and the Kurdish issue more broadly.
