The BBP (Great Unity Party) Chairman Mustafa Destici reacted strongly to the statements made by Pervin Buldan, a member of the HDP (Peoples' Democratic Party) delegation to İmralı, regarding her discomfort with some media comments about the "Terror-Free Turkey" process led by the PKK leader Abdullah Öcalan. He stated, "This is no longer a matter of freedom of expression, but a direct challenge to state authority."

Great Unity Party (BBP) Chairman Mustafa Destici reacted strongly to the statements of DEM Party İmralı delegation member and Deputy Speaker of the Grand National Assembly Pervin Buldan, who claimed that the terrorist organization PKK leader Abdullah Öcalan was very disturbed by some comments in the media regarding the Terror-Free Turkey process.
"IT IS NOW A MATTER OF DIRECTLY CHALLENGING STATE AUTHORITY"
Destici used the following statements in his social media post: "Until yesterday, these 'fake peace' addicts, who could not even go out in public, are shamelessly taking advantage of the opportunities of the Resolution Process and becoming increasingly arrogant. Now they are trying to interfere with the media order. To say that the baby killer in İmralı is 'disturbed' by some of the news related to him and the so-called 'Resolution Process' and to express that it is 'the government's duty' to block the content that causes this disturbance; it is no longer a matter of freedom of thought, but a direct challenge to state authority.
"IT IS A CALL FOR THE NORMALIZATION AND ACCEPTANCE OF THE TERRORIST ORGANIZATION'S DEMANDS"
In other words, a terrorist organization leader is not only trying to dictate to Turkey and the Middle East with his pathological delusions; he is also showing the audacity to dictate to this country's press system! However, the duty of the press in Turkey is not to provide emotional comfort to a terrorist; it is to protect the people's right to know the truth. Press freedom exists not for the whims of İmralı, but to preserve the blood of its martyrs, the sacrifices of its veterans, and the memory of its nation. Asking the state to shape the media language according to the demands of the terrorist organization leader is clearly a call for the normalization and acceptance of the terrorist organization's demands.
"CONCERNING THE COMFORT OF A MURDEROUS CONVICT IS A NATIONAL PROBLEM AREA"
The ones who should be truly 'disturbed' are the mothers of martyrs watching the news of their children on screen; the Mehmetçiks who gave their lives for this homeland in the mountains, at the borders, and in the operation zones. To disregard the patience, pain, and determination of those who are connected to this homeland not just by their ID cards but by their hearts, and to be concerned about the comfort of a murderous convict who has 'betrayed' this nation and state for forty years is a national problem area. And it can never be tolerated.
WHAT DID BULDA SAY?
In a statement to a television channel, DEM Party member Pervin Buldan, who stated that the terrorist organization PKK leader Abdullah Öcalan was very disturbed by some comments in the media regarding the Terror-Free Turkey process, used the following expressions: "Mr. Öcalan emphasized a matter that he was very disturbed about in the last meeting. He has serious criticisms. He clearly stated that many channels and commentators continue the hostile language of the past and that the concerns of these circles are not about solution and peace, but about rhetoric and enmity. The comments and expressions of some commentators and journalists that are against the process are not a problem we will solve. Because when we look at it today, the media is also in the hands of the government, and the judiciary is in the hands of the AKP. We are talking about a government that has power over every aspect of life. Therefore, it is again the government's duty to improve and eliminate all of these issues. But I want to emphasize that no progress has been made in this regard."
