Because at the end of the day, the pkk itself will start saying, you know, okay, if you want to go and get rod car and you need the ypg support, they are going to say if you continue to back turkey and its actions against us as well, were not really sure we can do that. So i think there is a great tupbd here for the United States. I think it has leverage over turkey too. If it didnt, turkey, for instance, would not have opened the corridor to koe ban ya or end lock. And it prevail in ankara as well. Thats a a hard assumption to make these days, unfortunately. And what happens after the elections will be key. Indeed, whether we will have elections at all. If we do have elections and they are held free and fairly, the question becomes what kind of government will we have . Clearly a coalition between the ak and the mhp will be very, very unhelpful. So well have to hope, first of all, we do have these elections, they will be fair and free, that the hdp will be able to participate, the peo
Thank you, senator cardin. Senator sullivan. Administrator mccarthy, good morning. Good morning. I want to kind of echo what our panel mentioned at the outset. We talked about waters, life out west. I think thats something we all agree with. We certainly want clean water. And i agree with senator boxer we all want to make sure polluters are accountable to help make sure we keep our water clean. But i also want to emphasize what senator gardener talked about, where we believe the government should be held to the same standards as it requires the public and the private sector do you believe they should be subject to the same transparency and reporting requirements that the public is .

Accidentally causing a blowout. Very significant pollution. Some argument saying it took too long to notify. What do you think
The predominantly kurdish areas that have diverted this rural mountainous combat into the urban setting. Which means that now we have a setting in which theres more civilian involvement and also more potential civilian casualties as well. What about the pkk . In 1990s, pkk was pretty much a monolithic topdown entity with very compact Decision Making. Turkeys argument and position throughout the 1990s was very clear. Get rid of pkks leadership and the organization is going to collapse. In 2015, we have a much different pkk which has decided to engage in splintering strategy, especially valid after the arrests and capture of its founding leader in 1999. The 2015 pkk is much more different than the 1990s pkk in the sense that Decision Making is more localized, clashes and command is also more localized, even though the central executive body is quite influential as well. Main difference is the emergence of localized leadership that younger cohort used to be the bridge between the pkk and
Political type revolution, someone pointed out already that we have new generation of or maybe geographical changes. Do you characterize this coming election outcome, characterize it more by recuring political outcome or having coming together . Do you want to take that . Yeah. I think i already mentioned in my remark there that this election will obviously trigger a generational shift. That will clearly be the case with dpp or for the green camp as a whole. And also, a lot of people in their 30s or even late 20s, they have been very active in social movement and also grassroots organization. They will steadily climb up the ladder and become an important forces in shaping the electoral politics. It depends on how his party and his own turn out. Ing . He might be around for quite a while, if his party turns out to be a critical voting bloc, then you know. On the other hand, if in the end, a lot of the voters abandoned him in the very end and his party actually couldnt really play a very
