MHP Chairman Devlet Bahçeli spoke at his party's parliamentary group meeting.
Highlights from Bahçeli's statements are as follows:
"We have no time to waste. Turkey has entered a period of 4 years without elections. This challenging process ahead must witness accurate, decisive, and results-oriented developments. Our nation's expectation is sustainable service. Turkey is one of the rare countries where stability in governance is grounded.
EMPHASIS ON THE PEOPLE'S ALLIANCE
The People's Alliance, an exceptional brand of moral consistency and patriotic stance, has played a tremendous role in the entrenchment of political stability. The People's Alliance is the brave heart of the Turkish era. The real fear of the circles questioning the Presidential Government System is the awakening of a sleeping giant. Even if the birth is painful, the power that is born is the leader country, Turkey.
GAZA STRIP
Turkey is the follower of the genocide crime committed by Israel in Gaza. Hopefully, the blood spilled by the innocent will not remain unavenged. A terrible tragedy that puts horror movies to shame is being experienced in the Gaza Strip."
CRITICISM OF THE UN
The United Nations (UN) is in a state of helplessness in resolving the Palestinian issue. The UN Security Council was established under the world conditions following World War II. Although decisions are taken with the approval of at least 9 of the 15 members, only the permanent members have veto power. Changes to the UN charter are required for the modification of membership conditions and veto powers in the Council.
"NETANYAHU WILL BE TRIED IN THE HAGUE WHEN THE TIME COMES"
Our proposal is to replace the veto power with a double-majority system. When the time comes, Netanyahu will be tried in The Hague and will go down in history as a genocidal criminal. This murderer must definitely be removed from office."
"WE CONDUCT POLITICS LIKE MEN, WE KNOW VERY WELL THAT ONE CANNOT ADVANCE WITH LIES"
The People's Alliance is not at the mercy of those who calculate. We conduct politics like men; we know very well that one cannot advance with lies. We leave the bankrupts who take Israel's side and barrage the cabinet with fire first to the nation and then to God."

'HAMAS' CRITICISM OF İMAMOĞLU
Are we the only ones who think that it is irrational for the IMM Mayor, who cannot call the PKK a terrorist organization, to label Hamas as a terrorist organization? Where are the 'jet-setters' of politics? Why aren't you speaking? Calling Hamas, which is defending its land, a terrorist organization means approving the murders. Calling Hamas a terrorist organization means turning one's back on the murdered babies. The IMM Mayor has sent a message to the bloody faces of global imperialism saying, 'Take me and use me as you please.'
PRESIDENT ERDOĞAN'S IRAQ VISIT
The sustainability of relations between Ankara and Baghdad is in the interest of both countries. The consultation of a joint struggle against terrorist attacks originating from Iraqi territory are noteworthy developments. What must happen is for the PKK to be officially declared a terrorist organization and uprooted from Iraqi soil.
"DÖNER LITERATURE"
It is our sincere wish that the German President, in addition to 'döner diplomacy,' also supports Turkey's fight against terrorism. The potential messages that the German President, who involves himself in domestic politics by using 'döner literature' and visiting CHP mayors, wants to convey are suspicious."
"TURKEY DOES NOT HAVE A KURDISH PROBLEM"
Turkey does not have a Kurdish problem; it has a separatism and terrorism problem. Those who serve to create chasms between Turk and Kurd, Alevi and Sunni, are the lowest of the low."
This is how Devlet Bahçeli read the newspaper headlines...

"FERDİ TAYFUR" STATEMENT
No one should go poking around in the bushes, no one should attempt to read intentions. We are always behind our Minister of Treasury and Finance. We have business to settle with colonial puppets. Those who made distorted evaluations after the video of me walking, listen to me now; you, the one called 'Ahmet from Kobani,' you especially should learn your lesson. If I want to say something, I say it directly to the addressee. 'If I am calling you a traitor, it is you who makes me say it...' This message is directly for anyone who attempts to trip Turkey up. Look at some of the newspaper headlines; 'Have the ties in the People's Alliance broken?' 'Bahçeli adjusted the balance for Erdoğan.' The People's Alliance exists until the end, it will exist, and it will remain standing. Ahmet from Kobani, we also consider you a clinical case. After a while, no vaccine will be of any use to you."
'Ferdi Tayfur' statement from Devlet Bahçeli!

"CONGRATULATING BETRAYAL IS NOT IN OUR BOOK"
In recent days, extraordinary congresses have been held in a political party, and a change in management has taken place. We have no desire to interfere in their internal affairs. Everyone should know this well. The MHP is being confronted with the accusation, 'Everyone congratulated them, why didn't you?' There are 104 political parties; there may be those who congratulate every congress and those who do not. I am stating why I did not congratulate, regardless of the reason: congratulating betrayal is not written in our book."
