The developments on its southern border concern far more than the Kurdish question; they have far-reaching implications for regional stability. The AKP’s election victory offers a chance for the government to shift its attention back toward resolving the broader problems in its neighborhood – that is, to act like a true regional leader, instead of pursuing a narrow, self-serving agenda.
就其本身而言，土耳其需要进一步拓宽视野。其南部边境的事态发展远远超出库尔德问题；而是将对地区稳定影响深远。正义与发展党不久前在选举中获胜为政府提供了将注意力转回到解决邻国大范围问题的机会——换言之土耳其应该像地区领袖般行事，而不是追求狭隘、自私自利的政治议程。
