On the way to the November elections, the AKP appears to have largely overcome this last candidates’ lists problem. But all the other items point to the need for a serious self-criticism that is long overdue.

Hopefully the June elections will have conveyed the following simple lesson to the AKP faithful: If they remain as no more than a mediocre sort of party, their vote is likely to be limited to the 35-40 percent interval for a few more years before probably falling yet again. But if the party can renew itself and once more embrace society-wide differences to come up yet again with a realistic and persuasive vision for the future, it can initially bounce back to 45-50 and subsequently even above 55 percent.

People want the establishment of permanent peace by rational actors after the reconciliation proccess. However Ak party will keep the process suspended until it sees a rational PKK.

The next step is to assert that the anomaly is caused by the AK Party, an argument to which it is not hard to find Western support, without forgetting to add the "fact" that President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan is the one who wants to stop the elections.

The PKK's tutelage over Kurds and the HDP missing out on the opportunity to be in Parliament with its 13 percent as a result of its supportive statements for the terror organization has forced the state to put the reconciliation process on the shelf.
