The amendments were passed as the Justice and Development Party (AKP) government searches for a solution to unrest in the southeast after the PKK cancelled a 14-month ceasefire in June and resumed a 26-year insurgency that has so far left 40,000 dead.
Amandamni su usvojeni u trenutku kada vlada Partije pravde i razvoja (AKP) traga za rešenjem nemira na jugoistoku zemlje, nakon što je PKK prekinula 14-mesečno primirje u junu i nastavila 26-godišnju pobunu, koja je do sada odnela 40.000 života.
