MHP leader Devlet Bahçeli's call regarding PKK leader Abdullah Öcalan sparked reactions from the IYI Party, and the party's chairman, Müsavat Dervişoğlu, made a reference to a speech Bahçeli gave 17 years ago by throwing a rope at the parliamentary podium.
The statement issued by the MHP included the following:
"We have received the rope that was thrown at our Chairman, Mr. Devlet Bahçeli, during the IYI Party Group Meeting with the suggestion that he place it in his office.
Our Chairman, Mr. Devlet Bahçeli, has hung the rope in his office."
