#1 Interesting to see what the Govt's reaction will be.

In the past 10 years or so (under first the secularists and then the Islamists) the Kurds in Turkey have been allowed to take Kurdish names, print newspapers and books in Kurdish and listen to Kurdish music, etc.

Undoing those rudimentary reforms, which were prompted partly by the EU as a condition of membership, would be horrible.
