I convey my greetings and love to everyone.

Together, we are experiencing the hope of the steps taken for peace, along with the pain and memory of Mr. Sırrı.

On the occasion of the PKK's congress results, we thank the PKK leadership that took this decision, and those who contributed, primarily Mr. Öcalan, as well as the President, Mr. Bahçeli, Mr. Özel, the DEM Party leadership, all political party chairmen, and especially Mr. Ahmet Türk and Ms. Pervin Buldan. We enthusiastically welcome this historic step as a major move taken in line with the memory of Mr. Sırrı.

Now is the time to work together with sincerity for peace, prosperity, democracy, and freedoms to be realized, and for Turkey to grow in every aspect. May it be auspicious for us all.
