The latest peace initiative follows steps by the group to end its armed campaign. Good Party parliamentary group deputy chair Uğur Poyraz accused Yüksel of thanking institutions and political figures involved in the peace initiative while failing to mention Öcalan. A second confrontation occurred during a speech by Gülistan Kılıç Koçyiğit, a DEM Party parliamentary group deputy chair. Good Party lawmakers objected to mentioning Turkey’s president and the imprisoned PKK leader in the same sentence and accused Koçyiğit of glorifying terrorism. New Party parliamentary group deputy chair Murat Emir said an earlier parliamentary report had called for democratic reforms to accompany efforts to resolve the Kurdish issue.
