The leader of the MHP, Devlet Bahçeli, delivered a message of "Terror-Free Turkey." Bahçeli stated, "The bloody calamity that has plagued our nation for decades has finally come to an end. The February 27 call from Imralı clearly connects the PKK terrorist organization with all its other extensions and groups."
The leader of the Nationalist Movement Party (MHP), Devlet Bahçeli, made a written statement within the scope of "Terror-Free Turkey".
Highlights from Bahçeli's statements are as follows: "The goal of a Terror-Free Turkey is to seal the peace of history and geography, to herald it with hope, and to equip it with the spirit of peace and brotherhood. The bloody calamity that has plagued our nation for decades has finally come to an end."
"THE PERIOD OF BETRAYAL IS ABOUT TO CLOSE"
The period of armed violence and betrayal, which has escalated with its social, political, economic, security, and humanitarian costs, is about to close. Moreover, there can be no mention of any other option or excuse, nor can any understanding or purpose that could justify separatist terrorism be discussed.
It is no longer possible to show patience and tolerance towards the shadow of terrorism that has fallen on political and democratic life. The Turkish nation will not turn a blind eye to the pressures and impositions of external and internal forces, nor will it be trapped in the tightening grip of risks and threats. There is no safe harbor or intermediate station between terrorism and democracy, weapons and politics, chaos and peace, division and unity. Our esteemed nation is determined to overcome its unfortunate and cursed fate with its sacred will and faith.
"THE RESIDUES AND REMAINS OF TERRORISM WILL BE SCRAPED AWAY"
The debris of 41 years of terrorism and separatism will be removed through collective effort, utilizing the possibilities of common sense, and certainly with sincere, genuine, patient, honest, and trust-giving initiatives. While the bloody traces of terrorism will be erased, its residues and remains will also be completely scraped away. It is essential to exercise extreme caution, responsibility, care, and vigilance to ensure that no road accidents occur, misunderstandings do not manifest, and that the optimistic developments, which are highly sensitive, are not interrupted.
"THE CALL INCLUDES PKK AND OTHER EXTENSIONS"
We have a golden opportunity ahead of us that cannot be neglected or violated. This opportunity must be secured and provided with a common understanding, dawn, and foresight without falling into delusions. As a result of the efforts to maintain the prudent, cool-headed, and warm messages of the DEM Party, the path to becoming a party of Turkey will also be opened. The call from İmralı on February 27 clearly includes the PKK terrorist organization along with all its other extensions and groups.
The claims of YPG and similar terrorist formations that they are exempt and excluded from the mentioned call, and the sharing of this unfounded view by those who raise dissenting voices is entirely contradictory to the nature of organizational and founding leadership. The terrorist organization has demanded its dissolution. Beyond this, playing for time, muddling the environment, engaging in provocative and destructive activities that disrupt the ongoing positive agenda, and intensifying demands for political and legal regulations is recklessness. Those who pursue the imposition of a hybrid national structure and those who recklessly and prematurely challenge the definition of Turkish citizenship as expressed in the current Constitution are the sweet water tricksters who dream of interrupting the mobilization for a Terror-Free Turkey.
"OUR TURKEY AIMS TO BUILD AND REVITALIZE A TERROR-FREE FUTURE"
If the aforementioned mobilization reaches a conclusion on a realistic and broad basis, it is inevitable that the one who will benefit from it, and who will undoubtedly swell with pride due to the immense peace and happiness that will emerge, is everyone who meets at the common destiny. In our view, everyone is Turkey, the entirety of the nation. The collective conscience is unequivocally in favor of the permanent and profound end of terrorism. There is no disagreement whatsoever regarding the fulfillment and execution of this goal in the shortest time possible. Those who serve the prolongation, procrastination, or even sabotage of this serious issue by taking advantage of the conjunctural fluctuations of time and space will bear the burden of accountability.
"TERRORISTS MUST SURRENDER THEIR BLOODY WEAPONS TO THE REPUBLIC OF TURKEY"
There is no doubt that terrorism is a great and devastating crime against humanity. Terrorism disregards human heritage and legacies. The Turkish nation is neither condemned, nor obliged, nor deserving to live with terrorism. The PKK terrorist organization and affiliated groups must immediately and unconditionally lay down their arms and even surrender their bloody weapons to the Republic of Turkey.
The ceasefire statement is not a correct, balanced, or accurate statement. Because there is absolutely no existence of a moral, logical, legitimate, and legal environment that is the stage for the mutual relations and struggles of equal and sovereign powers to speak of a ceasefire regime. On the contrary, every proposal to be made, every word to be said is a unilateral distraction and is futile. In a period where global politics and strategic relations are pregnant with many shocking developments, the disarmament of the terrorist organization along with all its extensions and connections is an irreplaceable necessity.
"THE SEPARATIST TERRORIST ORGANIZATION MUST END ITS EXISTENCE"
In today's world, where geopolitical fractures are dangerously prevalent, there is an advanced need for the functionality and operability of the spirit of national unity and solidarity. The separatist terrorist organization must act in accordance with the call of the founding leadership on February 27, separate its ways with weapons without putting forward any conditions, and end its organizational existence. Beyond this, no action, imagination, or delay effort will be considered innocent and reasonable.
The increasingly concrete and continuously gaining altitude discussions surrounding the definition of Turkish citizenship, which is a binding provision in the Constitution, have a more destructive and toxic function than freedom of expression and thought, and it is our sincere expectation that this malicious chaos will be swiftly concluded.
"IT IS UNDERSTOOD THAT PROVOCATIONS HAVE BEEN ORDERED AGAINST OUR COUNTRY"
Regional chaos dynamics are extremely active and operational. The worrying conflicts in the cities of Latakia and Tartus in Syria show signs of widespread occurrence. It is understood that external ethnic and sectarian provocations have been comprehensively ordered against our country on one side and neighboring countries on the other. The global and regional institutional architecture, which is desired to be dragged into a deep and uncontrolled crisis, is open to all kinds of crises and chaos due to the unconscious and reckless mentalities.
The dominant and prevailing international system that emerged after World War II is on the verge of being purged with deadly blows. In contrast, whether a world respectful of the principles of justice, equality, fairness, and dignity will be established, when the political and strategic roadmap will be determined, and how the uncontrolled disorder and disintegration seen in democracy and law will be resolved is a common pain that closely concerns every person, every nation, and every country.

"THOSE WHO CARRY ILLEGAL WEAPONS WILL PAY THE HEAVIEST PRICE"
It is undoubtedly true that Turkey, which has reinforced its internal peace and environment of tranquility with a culture of brotherhood and solidified it with national honor, will add strength to its power and will show continuous resistance against global and regional threats. The Turkish and Turkey Century is the century of peace and tranquility. The Turkish and Turkey Century is the century of national security while the world shakes, the pride of a thousand-year-old brotherhood law, and a demonstration of our esteemed nation's heartfelt connection and physical presence from east to west, north to south.
For this reason, it is mandatory for the PKK and other affiliated organizations to comply with the historic call made by İmralı on February 27, 2025. The goal of a Turkey without terrorism must be realized immediately, and terrorism must be uprooted from our lives. Otherwise, anyone who carries illegal weapons will pay the heaviest price."
