TBMM Vice President and MHP Istanbul Deputy Celal Adan stated after the PKK terrorist organization's congress, "Our deepest wound has been healed, the era of blood and hatred has come to an end."
With the call of MHP Chairman Devlet Bahçeli, another critical threshold has been crossed in the process of a terrorism-free Turkey. The PKK, which had previously announced that it would hold a congress to lay down arms, announced that it held its congress on May 5-7.
FIRST STATEMENT FROM PKK
In a statement regarding the congress, the PKK said, "The 12th Congress of PKK was successfully held between May 5-7. The congress was conducted in two different areas with delegates representing all working fields in parallel. The PKK 12th Congress read and evaluated the perspectives and proposals presented by Abdullah Öcalan to the congress. Additionally, a short report from the PKK Central Committee was also read and discussed at the congress. In this context, the PKK 12th Congress made historically significant decisions regarding PKK activities based on Apo's call," it was stated.
SIRRI SÜREYYA ÖNDER WAS ALSO MENTIONED
The statement also included, "The PKK 12th Congress commemorated Sırı Süreyya Önder, one of those who contributed the most to its preparation, with respect and gratitude. This valuable person, who has been a companion to Apo for 12 years, called on everyone to work together to achieve the goals of peace and a democratic society."
CONGRESS RESULTS WILL BE SHARED WITH THE PUBLIC
On the other hand, it was stated in the announcement that the decisions taken at the congress would be announced to the public; "Comprehensive and detailed information and documents regarding the results of the PKK 12th congress and the decisions made will be shared with the public very soon after the results from the two different areas are combined," it was said.
DEM PARTY'S 8-POINT STATEMENT
After the congress, the Peoples' Equality and Democracy Party (DEM) published a new 8-point statement regarding the congress and the process. In the statement, which included the phrase "A new page is being opened," it was stated, "No young person should fall to the ground, neither in the mountains nor in the cities."
FIRST STATEMENT FROM MHP FRONT
This development has also become one of the top agenda items in politics. While many politicians made their initial assessments regarding the issue, the first statement also came from the MHP front.
TBMM Vice President and MHP Istanbul Deputy Celal Adan, in a statement on his social media account, said, "Thanks to our leader Devlet Bahçeli's iron will and wise administration; our deepest wound has been healed, the era of blood and hatred has come to an end. Those who sow discord and serve imperialism have lost; the Turkish nation has won. May our thousand-year brotherhood endure. May our leader live on."
WHAT HAPPENED?
The terrorism-free Turkey process began with the statements made by MHP Chairman Devlet Bahçeli during the opening of the TBMM on October 1, 2024. After the call from PKK leader Abdullah Öcalan on February 27 to lay down arms and dissolve the PKK, it had been a matter of curiosity when the terrorist organization would make the long-awaited decision to lay down arms and dissolve itself.
