Latest News on Bolu Fire: AK Party Spokesperson Celik Assures Accountability for Responsible Parties
President and AK Party Chairman Recep Tayyip Erdogan chaired the AK Party Central Decision and Executive Board (MKYK) meeting, which ended. The meeting at the AK Party Conference Hall lasted about 2 hours.
AK Party Spokesperson Ömer Çelik made statements about the meeting. Here are some highlights from Çelik’s statements:
“The work carried out by expert experts to create the basic framework of the judicial process in Kartalkaya is being meticulously performed and maintained by expert experts.”
“We express our condolences to the lives we lost. I would like to clearly state that we will not allow any aspect of this issue to be covered up in any way. Regardless of the circumstances, we will use a high will to ensure that all dimensions are revealed. Our President already clearly stated this in his speech at the beginning of the MKYK. We will contribute to a process that is truly focused on fairness, where the truth is fully revealed and all results will be shared with the public in a transparent manner.”
“The process, including investigations conducted by the judiciary, administrative investigations, and the establishment of a commission in the assembly, will reveal the whole picture in all its clarity. While this will not bring back the lives we lost, we will always feel their sorrow. This is a great tragedy. I extend my condolences to both our people and their precious families. Moving forward, all these efforts will serve as a guiding light to prevent similar tragedies from occurring. But most importantly, all responsible parties, both morally, ethically, and legally, will be held accountable when the full truth and picture are revealed.”
“The temporary ceasefire in Gaza has unveiled the extent of the destruction in Gaza with its entry into force. So far, 50,000 Palestinians have lost their lives, and over 110,000 have been injured. The dimension of the inhumane and brutal actions of this genocide policy is becoming clearer day by day. The actions of the Palestinian captives taken by Hamas reveal the significant difference between those who perpetrate the genocide policy and those who resist it nobly and nobly. In this process, all our colleagues, members of various parliaments, went to Gaza. They have alerted the world to the genocide in Gaza. I congratulate all the press members who risked their lives to pursue the truth in this way. Many members of the press have lost their lives in this pursuit. And we see that TRT’s and Anadolu Agency’s documentation activities have reached a level that will be a reference in terms of international law and international politics. TRT and Anadolu Agency’s documentation activities on this genocide have emerged as evidence that will be a legal document regarding this genocide. This also shows great efforts on Turkey’s part to bring the truth to light in all respects.”
“The most important issue from our agenda, the ceasefire initiated by Israel on October 7, 2023, after the genocide activities, has brought some relief, albeit a muted one. With the ceasefire coming into effect, the extent of the destruction in Gaza has become much clearer. We have expressed our condolences to our lost brothers. God bless them all. The main desire is for the temporary ceasefire in Gaza to turn into a permanent ceasefire. This genocide policy must not continue. Some rumors are circulating that some countries want to send Palestinians from Gaza to other Arab countries. These are completely unacceptable and cannot be considered correct. Gaza and Palestinian territories are the homeland of the Palestinian people. They have the right to live there as much as anyone else, and every effort will be made to ensure that municipalities that do not take action on this issue to fulfill this will be closely monitored. Whoever is negligent in this regard, regardless of their party affiliation, will be pursued. We do not want any of our people to fall victim to wild dogs, such as a 12-year-old girl who was shredded by stray dogs in Yüksekova. The most important thing is that those who are responsible both morally, legally, and administratively will face the consequences. Our President has stressed the need for all the guilty parties to receive the punishment they deserve.”
“In terms of AK Party’s approach to the Imralı visit, after the second visit by the Dem party, do you have a meeting with the AK Party delegation you are a part of?”
“The visit traffic was completed during that process. What is expected next is for the terrorist organization to be liquidated, a call for the terrorist organization to disarm. In that visit traffic, we expressed our views clearly to the visiting delegation on how we view the issue. We also laid out our stance on the work done in the past and our approach in this period. After this visit traffic, the call for the terrorist organization to liquidate itself and relinquish its weapons was established.”
“The visit traffic has ended there, and now the focus is on the terror organization liquidating itself and disarming. The establishment and liberation of Syria, such as our vital interests 30 kilometers deep inside Syria and Iraq, from those ethnic groups, sect groups, and national sovereignty of those countries.”
“This issue is not a bargaining process for us. There is no compromise with any of the state’s core qualities. Sometimes some politicians talk about giving a lamb to the wolf or hope for terrorism with the resignation of a terrorist organization’s leader. These are wrong approaches.”
“The state has soft power in addition to its hard power. Some call for the resignation of the terrorist organization, calling for the resignation of the terrorist organization to drop its weapons. In this context, while Chenille’s all branches of power are examined, the facts are taken into consideration, and the truth will be shared with the public without any partiality, without any reduction, in a transparent manner.”
“To make sure that all aspects of this issue are revealed. I extend my condolences to both our people and their valuable families once again. In the coming days, we will ensure that the reality of this issue is brought to light in all its dimensions.”
“As for the AK Party’s approach to Ekrem İmamoğlu, after the investigation launched against Ekrem İmamoğlu, what are the party’s thoughts on this situation?”
“We are not in a position to take any steps that will hurt or upset the families of martyrs. We as a party express our utmost respect and honor for them. They are invaluable to us, and we will not be involved in any actions that would harm them. Our martyrs fought for us to live freely, independently, and protect our independence. While the state engages in this fight @ the sert Güç Unsur planını, our soldiers carry out operations, we see the operations of our police and gendarmerie, our Intelligence Organization. These are sert Güç Unsur and never stop the fight against terrorism. We will stand by them at all times.”
