[Hurriyet Daily News] Republican People's Party (CHP) leader Kemal Kilicdaroglu has blamed the recent violence between the outlawed Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) and security forces, which have led to the over 200 killings, on the previous ruling party after the June 7 elections.

"The country turned into bloodshed after 400 deputies did not come out of the June 7 elections.
