I am not an expert but in short, the Kurds see themselves different from the Turks and want their own independent country which would mean turkey has to give up a region of land, similar to Tibet wants to be independent from China.
Espacially under Recep Erdogan the Kurds are opressed and persecuted, thrown into prison and driven out of turkey into exile.

no... the support of iraq, iran and many other middle eastern nations would mean turkey will only ever attack kurds in syria and even that draws worldwide condemnation
Kurdistan is not a separate country at all.
Kurds live in eastern part of Turkey and they also live in some parts Iran, Iraq and Syria.
Kurds wanna a separate country for themselves,Kurdistan dont exist.
and also comparing turkey with those stateless kurds is an insult to us.Seems like you’d know better being in that part of the world. But I feel war is less likely these days. Maybe Cold War with cyber attacks and currency manipulation.
