A report on the Kurdish problem, published yesterday by a nationalist think-tank, proposes a radical approach to resolve it.

The 21st Century Turkey Institute yesterday issued a report on the Kurdish problem, entitled 'An Analysis of the Pro-Kurdishness Problem and Resolution Policies,' which also referred to different ethnic groups within the Kurds such as 'Kurdish-origin Turks' and 'Zaza-origin Kurds.'

The report was publicized at a press conference by the institute's head Umit Ozdag, a journalist with ultranationalist ideas and a former head of the Center for Eurasian Strategic Studies (ASAM), who also wrote the entire document. "
