The Biden administration has condemned a Turkish effort to disband one of the country’s largest opposition parties, the pro-Kurdish Peoples’ Democratic Party (HDP).
On Wednesday, a Turkish prosecutor filed a case with the Constitutional Court to dissolve the HDP, the parliament’s third-largest party. The indictment accuses the HDP of ties to the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK), a Kurdish militant group that both Turkey and the United States have labeled a terrorist organization.
