Turkey Inside Line: A Political Warning from Business; Kurdish Connections

Turkish Business "Solve Political System, Kurdish Issue": The chairwoman of the Turkish Industrialists' and Businessmen's Association (TUSIAD), Umit Boyner, has sent messages to the government and opposition parties: change the Political Parties Act, decrease barriers to open elections, and solve the Kurdish problem.

On the Kurdish issue, she said (referring to the statement of the Republican People's Party's newly elected leader Kemal Kilicdaroglu that the Kurdish problem is just an economic development problem): "It is insufficient to take the issue just as a problem of economic development. Those other political and social problems are producing barriers in front of a solution to the economic development."
