CHP Group Deputy Chair Murat Emir said in the first meeting of the commission established on the Kurdish question: “Of course, the only venue where the most pressing issues regarding the Kurdish question will be discussed, talked about, and where solutions will be sought, is our Grand National Assembly, founded by Mustafa Kemal Atatürk.”
Murat Emir added: “It is extremely valuable to be able to discuss all our problems in our grand assembly with full transparency before the people, embracing everyone with a democratic culture, without excluding anyone, and creating such spaces. We find this commission valuable in this respect, and I hope that in its work, it will achieve success in creating a democratic and equal society and in producing concrete solutions to our urgent and pressing problems, including the Kurdish issue. I hope we will succeed in taking some of the steps that our people are waiting for.”
Emir continued: “But what matters here is to take steps towards creating a stronger, more democratic, more equal, and more just Turkey that contributes to social peace, where we can look the mothers of martyrs and veterans in the eye — without making any ethnic distinctions between Turks and Kurds, without making any sectarian distinctions between Alevis and Sunnis, or getting stuck on any sub-identity. This should be our duty. But dear friends, we are going through a system where the Constitution is routinely violated. The Constitution is being violated.”
