Basically, if we limited the negotiations to people who haven't done bad things we'd have to exclude practically all the governments listed in section 3. Negotiations, for instance in Northern Ireland, have to include almost all interested parties to succeed.


Senators have 36 hours to object to this amendment

Are you sure the PKK isn't doing any terrorist actions these recent days?

(Lumine, do you want me to object?)

They may or they may not be, but if we want the negotiations to be successful, they should be included anyway.

Aye


I think joining the negotiations is the best indication that the PKK are open to compromising.

The current language seems pretty inoffensive to me, but if there's any way we can make it better for the turks, I'd support that.

I think section 5 should nullify any potential objection Turkey has to section 3. There is no danger of the negotiations leading to us demanding a chunk of turkey for Kurdistan or anything like that.
