BAHÇELİ'S ÖCALAN CALL REITERATED

In his post, Yıldız included the following remarks:

“As for those who cannot fully grasp what is happening in the Middle East regarding the historic call made by Nationalist Movement Party Leader Mr. Devlet Bahçeli on October 22, 2024, it is their own business whether they stay away from the screens for a while or continue to appear with great audacity.”

Emphasizing the MHP's stance on the fight against terrorism, Yıldız concluded his statement with these words:

“The Nationalist Movement Party will continue to work with all its might to protect the indivisible integrity of the state with its country and nation, to remove the obstacles before the material and spiritual development of the Turkish nation, and to ensure social peace and tranquility prevail.”
