ANKARA, May 5 (Reuters) - Turkish nationalist party leader Devlet Bahceli said on Tuesday the jailed head of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) should be given an official role to help advance a peace process aimed at ending a decades-long conflict.
Bahceli, a close ally of President Tayyip Erdogan who was instrumental in initiating the talks, made the proposal in a parliamentary speech after pro-Kurdish lawmakers accused the government of moving too slowly.
