Breaking News... DEM Party responds to Bahçeli's Öcalan proposal: 'We sign our name to it, Mr. Erdoğan, let's write history together'

DEM Party Co-Chair Tuncer Bakırhan evaluated the prominent agenda items during his party's weekly group meeting at the Grand National Assembly of Turkey. The most notable part of the meeting was his response to the statements made by MHP Chairman Bahçeli regarding Öcalan.

Bakırhan stated that they found the call made by Bahçeli at his group meeting positive, saying, "We sign our name to the words Mr. Bahçeli uttered at his group meeting today. Mr. Erdoğan, let's write history together."

BAHÇELİ HAD PROPOSED “STATUS” FOR ÖCALAN

MHP Chairman Devlet Bahçeli, during his party's group meeting held at the TBMM, emphasized a "terror-free Turkey" and stated that the "status issue" of PKK terrorist organization leader Abdullah Öcalan should be resolved. Bahçeli's move, which proposed the status of "peace process and politicization coordinator" for Öcalan, has become one of the focal points of the political agenda.

In his speech at the meeting, Bahçeli emphasized that the status debate regarding the PKK leader is important for the country's peace and pointed to the necessity of starting a new process.
