Ahmet Davutoğlu addresses Bahçeli at party group meeting: 'I put my signature under it'

Following the October 29 Republic Day, party group meetings have resumed at the Grand National Assembly of Turkey (TBMM).

Future Party Chairman Ahmet Davutoğlu made statements at the group meeting.

Davutoğlu's statements are as follows:

''Mr. Bahçeli's statements in Parliament have aroused great curiosity. Mr. Bahçeli continues to make these statements. I listened once again to the statements Bahçeli made at the Ziya Gökalp commemoration ceremony. We may disagree with Bahçeli on many issues, but it is possible to put one's signature under the references he made.

BAHÇELİ MUST FILL HIS RHETORIC WITH SUBSTANCE

Mr. Bahçeli must fill this rhetoric of his with substance. If you recall, I drew attention to a few issues from this podium. Mr. Bahçeli's rhetoric must be filled with substance. Secondly, Mr. Erdoğan should come out and speak. And a strong public diplomacy must be conducted, taking into account the families of our martyrs. You cannot take one segment of society with you and set yourself against another.''

I say this as a Turkmen child born in the Taurus Mountains. Whatever rights a Yörük child, a Turkmen child born in the Taurus Mountains has in this country, a Kurdish child born in the mountains of the Tigris or the mountains of Hakkari has the same rights.

If you look down on the Kurdish language, if you mock me because of my affection for the Kurdish people, then that is when these statements are not filled with substance.

THE TITLE I LOVE MOST IS SEROK AHMET

"One of the titles I love most is being called 'Yörük Ahmet' in the mountains of Konya and 'Serok Ahmet' in Diyarbakır. With this identity, I will continue to address both."
