It is now the turn of those who made and supported this call. It is time to put this word into action." "WE WILL ACT ACCORDING TO THE PROCESS ÖCALAN WILL DEVELOP"Following Bahçeli's statements, a statement from Kandil included the phrase, "The Kurdish people will base their entire structure on the process that Leader Apo will develop." In a statement made on behalf of the KCK Executive Council, the following expressions were included: "The Kurdish people will base their entire structure and components on the process that Öcalan will develop. Öcalan is the representative and negotiator of our movement, our people’s will, and the democratic solution to the Kurdish issue. There is no different approach or stance on this matter. Our movement will act according to the process that Öcalan will develop with all its components."
