Turkey's pro-Kurdish DEM party said on Thursday that its meeting with President Tayyip Erdogan to discuss a bid to advance a peace process took place in an extremely constructive and hopeful atmosphere.

The talks were part of efforts to end a 40-year-old insurgency by the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) militant group, which last month declared a ceasefire in response to its jailed leader Abdullah Ocalan's call for disarmament.
