Has the PKK given up on its dream of a homeland? | Inside Story

After decades of armed struggle, fighters from the Kurdistan Workers' Party, or PKK, are withdrawing from Turkiye and moving to northern Iraq. The conflict between the PKK and Turkish forces has killed more than 40,000 people in four decades. The withdrawal is the latest step in an agreement with the Turkish state, which the group says will see it shift to democratic politics. So, will Ankara stick to its end of the bargain and allow the PKK to engage in civil society? And is Kurdish autonomy now just a pipe dream?
