Reconciliation Process

13 November 2014 | Domestic Policy

Turkey takes a new historic opportunity to settle the Kurdish question after two previous initiatives failed in 2005 and 2009. To this end, the 2013 Reconciliation Process aims to eradicate the armed-conflict and violence and sets the ground for dialogue, politics, peace and calm for a solution. The process has been launched after the talks between the National Intelligence Organization of Turkey (MIT) Director, Hakan Fidan, and the leader of the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK), Abdullah Öcalan, who has been confined to the İmralı Island. It is of historic and vital importance for Turkeys transformation into a global actor, and introduces a step-by-step strategical road map that needs to be followed very carefully.

Etkinlik Detayı

24 years ago today, thousands of Bosnian Muslims were brutally murdered in the heart of Europe in Srebrenica, in front of the eyes of the whole world. In order to prevent similar incidents from recurring one must first fight the attitudes and discourses that have made these massacres possible.

As we all know, Islamophobia, Anti-Semitism and right-wing violence are on the rise. We also observe that there are some parallels between the deniers of the Holocaust and Srebrenica are not very different from each other.

On 11^th of July, 2020, SETA will organize a panel titled “Genocide Denial and Islamophobia”. The panel will address the question of whether there is a link between the genocide denial and Islamophobia.

Following the President of Presidency for Turks Abroad and Related Communities H.E. Abdullah Eren’s keynote speech, Enes Bayraklı, Coordinator of SETA Brussels Office will lead the panel in company of Amil Khan (Remembering Srebrenica UK), Farid Hafez (Georgetown University The Bridge Initiative), and Ivan Ejub Kostić (Author of European Islamophobia Report – Serbia Country Report).
