AK PARTY SPOKESPERSON ÇELİK: NETANYAHU'S PARTICIPATION IN THIS SUMMIT WAS NOT ON THE TABLE AT FIRST

Spokesperson Çelik spoke about President Erdoğan's plane, which initially bypassed the runway and then landed at Sharm El Sheikh Airport on its way to the Gaza summit in Egypt. Çelik stated, "Netanyahu's participation in this summit was not on the table at first. However, since we are prepared for all scenarios, a study had been conducted on how to behave in such a situation if it occurred."

"OUR PRESIDENT WOULD NEVER ACCEPT TO BE AT THE SAME SUMMIT AS NETANYAHU"

In conclusion, I can say this: Our President's clear will is extremely firm. Our President would never accept Netanyahu to be part of the same photo decision, to be at the same summit, or to sit at the same table."

Key points from Ömer Çelik's statements are as follows:

"Our President's number one issue has been Gaza. In this matter, a ceasefire was first sought; after the ceasefire, significant efforts were made to establish mechanisms and tools that would lead to lasting peace.

"NETANYAHU'S POLITICAL CAREER IS DEPENDENT ON MASSACRE"

With the declaration of intent made yesterday in Sharm El Sheikh for Gaza, the support for the peace initiative initiated by President Trump has been clearly demonstrated. In this context, the release of prisoners and hostages is also considered an important step.

It is clear that Netanyahu's political career is dependent on massacre. It is extremely evident that he is a political figure who has made committing massacres a habit. Yesterday, in the face of the emergence of an international will in this way, it seems that for now, the Netanyahu government has shown some compliance. However, as I said, there is still a long way to go; the process is extremely open to provocation.

Nevertheless, the contacts that our President has been conducting with Qatar, Egypt, and the United States represent a new phase. This means that an international will is clearly manifesting itself together with all the leaders present there against genocide policies. Additionally, it has also become clear that there needs to be an international guarantee. At this point, the way has been opened for progress on how to achieve lasting peace from now on.

"OUR PRESIDENT HAS BEEN PERSISTENT IN HIS STRUGGLE"

We are closely witnessing our President; we know what hardships he has been fighting against, that he has never taken a step back, and that he has been consistently persistent within the framework he has established. This struggle has aspects that are reflected in the public eye, as well as many aspects that are largely unreflected. For this reason, he does not give up for a moment when entering this struggle and continues with determination until the end.

"THE FOCUS IS ON THE DISSOLUTION OF THE PKK TERRORIST ORGANIZATION AND DISARMAMENT"

Just as we will not allow Turkey without terrorism to be sabotaged by certain focal points, I would also like to express that we will stand against the sabotage of the process by structures like the SDF in Syria. The focus is on the dissolution of the PKK terrorist organization and disarmament.

We will not allow certain structures that do not represent the will of the Druze groups pursuing separatism in southern Syria, just as we will not allow those that do not represent the will of the Kurds, Alevis, and Nusayris to destabilize the region through terrorism.

"EVERYTHING ÖZGÜR ÖZEL SAID IS RELATED TO POLITICAL GOSSIP"

On the other hand, we also see that some approaches that can only be evaluated at the level of gossip regarding Turkey and our President are being attempted to be produced, which have no relation to reality. The degree of political gossip being presented as a foreign policy assessment by the leader of a political party is truly a remarkable level of decline. Everything Özgür Özel said in his group speech today is related to political gossip. There is a distorted situation of presenting a foreign reference as an argument internally. Supposedly, Turkey has been threatened. He is putting forward some approaches that can only be described as gossip, which no one in the world would take seriously. He uses a Zionist language. If Özel is going to refer from outside, he should take the example of Spanish Prime Minister Sanchez. I wish you could stand firm like Spain.

BAHÇELİ'S "CEMEVİ" STATEMENT

We have fought against discrimination and inequality. We see ourselves as a part of our Alevi citizens; we are one, we are together. We share the same fate, the same country, the same citizenship, and the same solidarity. We have always acted with this awareness and have taken many significant steps on these issues so far. Here, we have also fought against discrimination and inequality. We see ourselves as a part of our Alevi citizens; we are one, we are together.

We share the same fate, the same country, the same citizenship, and the same solidarity. We have always acted with this awareness and have taken many significant steps on these issues so far. In this context of speech, our own competent bodies also play an important role in managing this process.

"THE ISSUE OF MILITARY HOSPITALS"

I would like to say the following regarding military hospitals. Various wars, conflicts, and crises are continuously being reviewed in the form of certain evaluations. Our President has given an instruction. He has instructed to conduct a study on which approaches should be updated and renewed in all these matters. In this context, the Ministry of National Defense is carrying out these studies. Military hospitals are also under evaluation.

So far, when the Turkish Armed Forces have made evaluations regarding conflicts that have arisen in our close vicinity, we have seen that even regarding geographies that are distant from us, the evaluation capacity of the Turkish Armed Forces is high.

We always say we have an army that is thousands of years old.
