For the first time in their modern history, the Kurds in Iraq and
Turkey at least are cautiously ascending. In northern Iraq the two
U.S. wars against Saddam Hussein have had the fortuitous side
effect of helping to create a Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG).
The KRG has become an island of democratic stability, peace, and
burgeoning economic progress, as well as an autonomous part of a
projected federal, democratic, post-Saddam-Hussein Iraq. If such an
Iraq proves impossible to construct, as it well may, the KRG is
positioned to become independent. Either way, the evolution of a
solution to the Kurdish problem in Iraq is clear. Furthermore,
Turkey's successful EU candidacy would have the additional
fortuitous side effect of granting that country's ethnic Kurds
their full democratic rights that have hitherto been denied.
Although this evolving solution to the Kurdish problem in Iraq and
Turkey remains cautiously fragile and would not apply to the Kurds
in Iran and Syria because they have not experienced the recent
developments their co-nationals in Iraq and Turkey have, it does
represent a strikingly positive future that until recently seemed
so bleak.
