Why has the PKK ended its armed struggle? | Inside Story

It's one of the longest-running conflicts in the Middle East -- and it's about to come to an end. Members of the Kurdistan Workers' Party, or PKK, started laying down their arms at a ceremony in northern Iraq. It comes two months after the group said it would end its armed struggle against Turkiye and shift to democratic politics. Reaction has been mixed -- some Kurds think it could pave the way to peace, others argue it's a concession with no gains. So, how will this process play out in Turkiye -- and in the wider region?
