Erdogan signs conditional amnesty for PKK fighters
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has approved a law granting conditional amnesty to thousands of Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) fighters, as part of efforts to achieve peace with the organization. The law stipulates the suspension of sentences sentenced against convicts and the postponement of trials for a period ranging from 5 to 10 years, with the possibility of dismissing cases if the individuals commit to refraining from criminal activity. The law will come into effect following confirmation by the Turkish National Security Council of the dissolution of the party and the surrender of its weapons, while the PKK continues to declare its self-dissolution, with some senior figures being excluded from the amnesty.
