On Bahçeli's agenda were the operations launched by the US and Israel against Iran.

Highlights from Bahçeli's statements are as follows:

"I offer my best wishes and gratitude to our dear citizens who follow us from their screens, radio channels, and social media platforms, and to our valuable brothers and sisters who are struggling for a dignified life in every corner of our heartland and cultural geographies. Right at the beginning of my speech, I must express with regret and sorrow that the hierarchy of values and the pyramid of humanitarian and conscientious measures we are in are severely damaged. Consequently, a state of crisis, chaos, and turmoil has descended upon the world like a nightmare. The fueled fire of instability has not only engulfed the chimneys of geographies but has also begun to sabotage the future with extreme risks and dangers.

While the dire consequences of the First and Second World Wars have not yet lost their maximum impact, it is certainly not easy to accurately predict what kind of environment of brutality a new series of wars, expanding in rings, will invite.

The dire consequences of world wars are still effective. The fire of instability is being fueled. At the point we have reached, the weak are in the position of being right, and the right are in the position of being weak. The US attacked Iran with the provocation of Zionism. The attack on Iran is illegal and immoral.

"THIS AGGRESSION IS ILLEGITIMATE AND ILLEGAL"

First of all, I must state that the United States attacking Iran by falling for the provocation and plotting of Zionism is of a nature that will cripple regional and global balances. This aggression is illegitimate. This aggression is illegal. This aggression is immoral. There is no one who respects or recognizes international law. It is impossible to speak of anyone with a mind and logic who would claim that the law of the jungle does not apply in the world.

What happened to the ongoing negotiations? What happened to the talks that were supposedly continuing and were claimed to be close to an agreement and compromise? Following the negotiations held in Geneva on February 26, 2026, the Omani Foreign Minister had announced that Iran had agreed to zero out its enriched uranium. The United States and Iran had simultaneously given messages that there was progress in the negotiations. It had even been announced that the talks following Geneva would continue in Vienna.

"THE KILLING OF KHAMENEI IS COWARDICE"

On Saturday, February 28, 2026, while Iran's supreme leader Ali Khamenei was in a meeting with high-level officials, politicians, and bureaucrats to address developments regarding the aforementioned negotiations, Israel's attack and the subsequent murder of those present at said meeting is pure cowardice. Spies have gradually infiltrated Iran's most critical and confidential areas. When traitors and agents are on the inside, the castle gate does not hold the lock. Zionist banditry, by prodding and pushing, has made the United States attack Iran. A trap was set for Iran under the guise of negotiations. After Khamenei's death, what is it if not a sign of terrifying organized aggression that MOSSAD agents recorded instant footage under the rubble and sent it to Netanyahu's office? Iran's business management and military and strategic infrastructure have been targeted. The Tehran administration has had to bow down to intelligence games and operations carried out within this framework in the first place.

"THE IMPORTANCE OF THE INTERNAL FRONT HAS BEEN UNDERSTOOD"

My purpose here is not to explain in detail the attacks carried out by the US-Israel coalition against Iran. Moreover, we are not a news bulletin, we are not a news agency, and we are certainly not war correspondents. Our goal is to explain and express that there are lessons to be learned from the multi-dimensional attacks targeting our neighbor Iran, and that seeing how close and ruthless the threat is, is an urgency at the level of survival. The importance of the internal front, the value of national unity and solidarity, I believe, has been understood much better and clarified.

"THOSE WHO TURNED UP THEIR NOSES AT A TERROR-FREE TURKEY, DID YOU SEE OUR PURPOSE?"

It is both impossible and unreasonable to isolate and think of our country separately from the terrifying calamities that have befallen our neighbor Iran. You, the ignorant who turned up your noses at the goal of a terror-free Turkey, do you see better now what we are doing and what we are aiming for? You, the mixed-breed mentalities who shamelessly distort our sincere and genuine call for Turkish-Kurdish brotherhood and attack the February 27 call of the PKK's founding leadership from every angle, are you drawing any conclusions from the ring of fire around us? You political freaks who try to compete with us, measure up to us, and even try to set the tone with an arrogant style regarding the love of homeland and nation, and the subject of national unity and brotherhood, when do you intend to understand what kind of disaster and catastrophe we have turned back from? I wonder when you hope to see that if our internal front is shaken, our right and left will be filled with poisonous tribes. I ask you, the collaborator grandchildren of those who said 'Let the Bulgarians take Edirne rather than Enver,' you, the nationless who pretend to be nationalists, what part of a Turkey that has become one, stayed alive, and become a single heart all together, are you uncomfortable with?

"THERE IS NO WINNER IN WAR, BUT THERE ARE MANY WINNERS IN PEACE"

Please pay attention, what should we do if we do not take a lesson from nearly 50 people at the highest level of a state being targeted at the same time and being eliminated in the same way? How should we interpret such a violation of precaution and caution? What should we say about the bloody, dramatic, and tragic developments in Iran after Venezuela? Should we refrain from drawing any conclusions from this vandalism? Furthermore, I hope that the conflicts between Pakistan and Afghanistan will end and that the disputes will be resolved through mutual agreement. Peace must prevail in every part of our geography. There is no winner in war, but there are many winners in peace. The only truth that should dominate and serve the world is peace. The conflict between Afghanistan and Pakistan, and the war of the US-Israel partnership with Iran, must absolutely be intervened in directly with peaceful solution strategies."
