December 11, 2012: Turkey’s minister of European Union affairs challenged members of the pro-Kurdish Peace and Democracy Party (BDP) to condemn the terrorism of the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK). The government minister made the argument that if the BDP’s members of parliament wish to be taken as serious political leaders in a democracy they must condemn the PKK’s terrorist acts.
