Zafer Party's Esmaül Hüsna Aslan: Why are those who praised Öcalan silent today for our 12 martyrs?

Following the Ministry of National Defense's (MSB) announcement that 6 soldiers were martyred in the Claw-Lock Operation region, the number of martyrs has risen to 12 in the last 24 hours.

Zafer Party Deputy Chair Esmaül Hüsna Aslan issued a call to the government via her X account. In her post, where she also reacted to the failure to declare a national day of mourning, she said the following:

"Why are those who declared a national day of mourning when the Emir of Qatar died silent today for our 12 martyrs?

Why are those who declared a national day of mourning for Gaza silent today for our 12 martyrs?

Why are those who declared a national day of mourning when the King of Saudi Arabia died silent for our 12 martyrs?"

REMINDED OF PRAISE FOR ÖCALAN

In her post, Aslan also recalled the praise-filled statements made by AKP officials of the period, primarily President Tayyip Erdoğan, regarding Abdullah Öcalan, the leader of the PKK terrorist organization.

Here are those words:

“I am the one who sent the friend who is negotiating with the PKK. If anyone has a problem with that, tell me.”                       President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan

 “Öcalan has the ability and experience to read events. He is a new actor in the region.”              Then-Deputy Prime Minister Yalçın Akdoğan

"We were the ones who decriminalized saying 'Mr. Öcalan' and waving the PKK flag...”                              Former Deputy Prime Minister Bülent Arınç

 “Abdullah Öcalan is the leader of the Kurds. His messages are also our thoughts…”                      Former Minister of State Beşir Atalay

“The position Öcalan holds contributes to Turkey. He is saying very valuable things.”                      Former AKP MP Mehmet Metiner

“Abdullah Öcalan reads the future of the world well. His demands are normal, they are legitimate.”             Former AKP MP Yasin Aktay

“The PKK is not a terrorist organization... Apo is an opportunity for Turkey. He must be re-engaged.”                      AKP MP Orhan Miroğlu
