A news article published in our newspaper yesterday, signed by Sarp Sağkal, included what the party staff said about the NEW Party's stance on the framework law.
They must have thought that their HAVET (No but Yes or Not Enough but Yes) attitude would not affect the Atatürkist and republican voters' view of the party, so they said:
"This vote will not be the only criterion in evaluation. The public will evaluate the developments holistically. This is a 'yes' vote given specifically for a single law. The issue was the regulations regarding the disarmament of the PKK. Here too, our chairman voted 'yes' so that 'Arms should be laid down, no news of new martyrs should come, no one's mother should cry.'"
So the MPs who said no to the law said mothers should cry! Do they lack the capacity to explain the problem without resorting to this distortion?
Even those who are not in politics are aware that the framework law is part of a large imperialist operation. It is impossible for the NEW Party staff not to be aware of what kind of destruction would be created by granting a special amnesty to PKK terrorists and releasing them into society, and how this would be used for the political calculations and Neo-Ottomanist ambitions of the government.
THE ASSEMBLY HAS ALREADY CLOSED BEING THE PEOPLE'S ORGANIZATION
Let me remind those who have forgotten the words of Atatürk, who founded the Republic of Türkiye, about the Turkish Grand National Assembly, which he defined as the "People's Organization".
"This is the only place to appeal on behalf and on behalf of the nation and the country; that is, your Supreme Assembly. We cannot abandon this legal right, this national right, this natural right, to anyone or any board, for any reason, excuse or thought."
The legislative body responsible for making laws in Turkey is the Turkish Grand National Assembly. However, for the first time in our country's history, it was clearly stated that a law was written with the knowledge of only three people before it came to the Parliament: Erdoğan, MİT President İbrahim Kalın and Öcalan, the leader of the PKK terrorist organization!
Then, the bill proposal was hurriedly brought to the Parliament, and the so-called "opposition" deputies overwhelmingly participated in the game set up by the government. However, patriotic voters expected that those who claim "We are the representatives of the Kuva-yi Milliye spirit" would not approve a text prepared with Öcalan and brought to them under pressure, and that "It is our duty to make laws!" They should reject this insult by saying, and the MPs they have authorized to represent them should thwart the game planned by the government!
There is no need to beat around the bush; They approved a law that, as lawyers explained, was clearly unconstitutional. The Turkish Grand National Assembly had long ceased to be the people's organization, and the legal process reinforced this dire situation.
How will those who said yes accuse the government of violating the constitution or laws from now on? Even if they follow and accuse him, it will not be credible, the process will progress anyway.
Bargaining is also obvious. With the passage of the framework law, it is clearly stated that the DEM Party should support the AKP in constitutional amendments and the presidential issue.
WHILE TBB IS SILENT, BAR ASSOCIATIONS REMIND THE RULE OF LAW
While these were happening, the Union of Turkish Bar Associations, a public institution established to ensure the rule of law, remained silent. While 16 bar associations in our eastern provinces support the law, calling it a "historic opportunity"; Samsun, Trabzon, Edirne, Çanakkale and Sakarya bar associations emphasized that the framework law has the nature of a disguised amnesty and that this is against the principles of the supremacy of the constitution, equality before the law and the rule of law.
Let's end the article with a quote from the statement of Sakarya Bar Association:
"In the Republic of Turkey, which was founded with the spirit of Kuva-yi Milliye, sovereignty unconditionally belongs to the nation. The will of the nation cannot be left to negotiations behind closed doors, political initiatives and negotiations far from transparency."
