Abdullah Öcalan, the imprisoned leader of the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK), has called on his followers to lay down their arms, potentially ending a decades-long insurgency against Turkey. The conflict, which began in 1984, has resulted in over 40,000 deaths. While some view this as a historic opportunity for peace, others remain skeptical about the Turkish government's willingness to negotiate. Analysts suggest the move could be linked to political maneuvering by President Erdogan, who may use it to consolidate power. The outcome of this call remains uncertain, but it could have significant implications for Turkey and the broader region.

Ending the insurgency would be a major achievement for Turkey's president after past efforts failed to resolve a conflict in which more than 40,000 people have died since 1984. Erdogan has called it "one of the last obstacles blocking the goal of a great and powerful Turkey".
