The first step regarding the PKK's weapon destruction/surrender process has been realized in line with the goal of a "Terror-Free Turkey".
With the historic call of Mr. Devlet Bahçeli and the state will demonstrated by our President, the determination to open a historic page for Turkey to rid itself of the burden of terrorism is progressing with strength.
Achieving the goal of a "Terror-Free Turkey" will enable our country to be free from the burden of terrorism and will help our region reach the goal of being a "terror-free zone".
"STATE INSTITUTIONS CONTINUE TO CARRY OUT COMPREHENSIVE WORK"
The visit traffic and consultation process between the DEM Party and other parties significantly contribute to achieving the goals of the process. With the activation of the will of the Grand National Assembly to support the process, the contributions of all political parties in the Assembly will become concrete.
Under the instructions of our President, state institutions continue to carry out comprehensive work in all areas, especially diplomacy, intelligence, and security, to achieve the goal of a "Terror-Free Turkey".
"THANKS TO OUR MARTYRS AND VETERANS, THE PRINCIPLE OF 'ONE HOMELAND, ONE NATION, ONE STATE, ONE FLAG' HAS BEEN PROTECTED UNDER ALL CIRCUMSTANCES"
With the unique sacrifices of our esteemed martyrs and heroic veterans, all kinds of attacks against our country and national sovereignty that have been ongoing for many years have been thwarted. The ambitions of separatist terrorism towards our country have not been allowed. Thanks to the unique sacrifices made by our martyrs and heroic veterans, whom we always remember with mercy and gratitude, the principle of "One homeland, one nation, one state, one flag" has been protected under all circumstances.
"A CRITICAL THRESHOLD HAS BEEN PASSED"
At this stage, a critical threshold has been passed to achieve the goal of a "Terror-Free Turkey". From now on, the dissolution of all branches of the PKK and its illegal structures, as well as the burning/surrender of weapons, must be completed in a short time.
With the will of our President, the state project that is ongoing must remain vigilant against all kinds of provocations to achieve its objectives.
The will that will disrupt the malignant political projects of those who use terrorism as a tool for "proxy wars" and approach our region with imperialist aims is the "Terror-Free Turkey" will and its inspiration for the understanding of a "terror-free zone".
