BDP: we will not bend, should you arrest 10 thousands of us
Peace and Democracy Party (BDP) Co-Chair Gültan Kýþanak remarked that Prime Minister Erdoðan has a list of political execution which consists of thousands of people and said; “We will not knee before you even if you take 10 thousand people into custody”.
Speaking at the group meeting, BDP Co-Chair Kýþanak stated that “the boycott they continued till October 1st was made to show everyone that Turkey has gone off the rails.
Kýþanak called attention to the operations carried out under the name of KCK devoted to eliminate the Kurdish politics and said; “We once again faced a political slaughter when we woke up this morning. Most of the former and current executives of our party are in custody now. The AKP police is hunting Kurds.”
Kýþanak pointed out that a civil and democratic constitution can’t be worked on while the clash is continuing and said that deciding on war as soon as the parliament opens means to sabotage the process of the new constitution. Kýþanak added that the march to Gemlik on October 8th will be an important step to open the way for negotiations.
BDP Co-Chair Selahattin Demirtaþ also reacted to the detention of more than a hundred people with house raids and detentions carried out in many provinces against the BDP last night.
Demirtaþ remarked that they are concerned about the Prime Minister's political attitude that intends to make things more difficult and to destroy grounds of compromise rather than to strengthen constitutional discussions and seeks for negotiation.
Demirtaþ stated that the Prime Minister targets the BDP by ordering instructions around every day and added; “Our colleagues, PM members, mayors and party members are arrested every day under the name of KCK operations. If this is the KCK, I am the President of the KCK because all detainees are members of the BDP. We discuss among each other whether we can hold mature, conciliatory and solution-oriented discussions in such an environment. I hope Turkey will manage to create an environment where its constitution can be discussed intrepidly without living big political crisis but the discourse and practices of the Prime Minister don’t contribute to this process.”
