Breaking news… MHP leader Devlet Bahçeli spoke at his party’s group meeting. Devlet Bahçeli said, “No one should expect us to leave Northern Cyprus alone. It should not be forgotten that Cyprus is a national cause and an indispensable matter of sovereignty for us.” he said.

Highlights from MHP leader Bahçeli’s statements:

The Zionist barbarism we experience today… Israel has turned the region into hell with its aggressive policies. Israel is a threat to the peace of the region. If a regime is to change in the Middle East, it should be Israel. Trump has put the USA on Netanyahu’s tail.

“Türkiye IS HOPE FOR GLOBAL ORDER”

As MHP and the People’s Alliance, we have responsibilities towards Islamic societies, the Turkish world and all humanity, along with the responsibility of protecting the peace and prosperity of our nation. Türkiye is hope for the global order.

“WE WILL TEAR THE IMPERIALIST MAPS AGAIN”

Just as our ancestors tore up the maps drawn on imperialist tables 100 years ago, we will tear them up again. We will bring the seven heifers to their knees again.

The USA and Israel do not and should not have the right to attack another country whenever they want. We invite the international community to common sense, and we emphasize once again that the USA and Israel should come to their senses. There will be no winner in this war.

No one should expect us to leave Northern Cyprus alone. It should not be forgotten that Cyprus is a national cause and an indispensable matter of sovereignty for us.

The ‘Pool system’, which caused great worker grievances in Izmir Metropolitan Municipality and its affiliated companies, this time spread to CHP’s Buca Municipality. Buca Mayor Görkem Duman returned 3 personnel working under the municipality to their companies and put them on unpaid leave, without giving any reason.

STOP OPERATIONS IMMEDIATELY

The “pool” practice for workers in Buca Municipality received a reaction from the management of General-İş Union Izmir Branch No. 6, which is affiliated with DİSK, where the workers are organized. In its statement regarding the issue, the union management harshly criticized the reinstatement of the workers to the company without any legal justification. The union called on Buca Mayor Görkem Duman to ‘Stop the operations immediately’ and demanded that the practice aimed at intimidating the workers be stopped.

HARD REACTION FROM THE UNION

In the statement made by the union, the following statements were made: “It is in no way acceptable and will not be accepted to bring up this practice in Buca Municipality, which is known to the Izmir public, that the worker is suffering from, and which has no legal basis, but is implemented stubbornly and persistently to intimidate, scare and give up on the worker, and is carried out by returning the worker to the company.” His statements were included. Pointing out that only the worker is oppressed with this strange system, the union continued the statement as follows: “This practice, which ignores all legal and constitutional rights of the worker and the collective bargaining agreement that establishes his existence in the workplace, is a tool of threat and intimidation. Implementing this practice in Buca, which was reflected in the press and was terminated in the Metropolitan Municipality, is a completely arbitrary practice that does not fit into social democratic values. Workers who make mistakes, create problems and troubles in the workplace, do not work, and do not comply with the contract rules are referred to the disciplinary board and receive compensation.” Penalties are determined here. If there is a complaint about a worker, the legal procedures required are clear. For this reason, it is not acceptable for Buca Municipality to return 3 of our members to the company without any justification. The members in question are workers who do their jobs on time, fulfill their assigned duties and go to their assigned places. Such practices should be stopped immediately and the actions to be taken should be carried out on legal basis and contract rules.

As a result of the joint work carried out by the National Intelligence Organization (MİT) and the Syrian Intelligence Service, spy Önder Sığırcıkoğlu, who had been on the run for 12 years, was caught on the Syrian-Lebanon border.

HE WAS A REGIME SPY

According to information received from security sources; Önder Sığırcıkoğlu kidnapped Free Syrian Army commanders Hüseyin Harmoush and Mustafa Kassum in 2011 and handed them over to the Assad regime, causing Hüseyin Harmoush’s death as a result of torture.

As a result of this incident, which caused the fate of Syria to change, Sığırcıkoğlu was sentenced to 20 years in prison in 2013 for ‘depriving a person of his freedom by using force, threat or fraud’. However, he escaped from Osmaniye Open Prison in 2014.

FETO HELPED

It was determined that FETO-related structures played an active role in Sığırcıklıoğlu’s escape process. It was determined that the file information was changed irregularly, the penalty period was calculated incorrectly and there were serious irregularities in the permit process. During the investigations, it was revealed that the indictment against Önder Sığırcıkoğlu was drawn up by Özcan Şişman, a FETO member prosecutor in charge of the MİT trucks case in 2014. It was determined that the deadlines entered into the system incompletely were signed by FETO member execution prosecutor Yunus Baki.

After his escape, Önder Sığırcıkoğlu hid in countries such as Syria, Russia and Lebanon for many years. MİT created an uninterrupted tracking network by not losing track of Sığırcıkoğlu. Many elements of physical surveillance, technical interception, cyber tracking and intelligence were used in this operation. After Sığırcıkoğlu took refuge in Syria, he was taken under protection by the Assad regime intelligence. Önder Sığırcıkoğlu also established a close relationship with Yusuf Nazik, the perpetrator of the Reyhanlı explosions. Sığırcıkoğlu and Nazik stayed in the same house in Syria for a while. Önder Sığırcıkoğlu used his relations with the Syrian intelligence to release Yusuf Nazik from prison. Yusuf Nazik, who was captured and brought to Türkiye in 2018 during an operation by MİT, confirmed in his statement that he was rescued from prison by Önder Sığırcıkoğlu. Sığırcıkoğlu was arrested.

PLANNED STEP BY STEP

MİT created the movement profile of Önder Sığırcıkoğlu using physical and technical methods after his escape. He identified his communication networks and places of refuge and systematically monitored them. With the intelligence analysis, it was determined that Önder Sığırcıkoğlu was hiding first in Syria, then in a house in the Cebel Muhsin region of Lebanon, and then went to Russia’s Krasnodar Region and then back to Lebanon via Egypt.

COLLABORATION

With the capture of Sığırcıkoğlu, cooperation between Türkiye and Syria at the intelligence level marked a new era in regional balances.

Striking details continue to be revealed in the Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor’s Office’s corruption investigation against CHP’s Uşak Municipality.

It was determined that Yalım, in response to AA’s messages saying “Is it okay if I don’t go to work?”, directed him to meet with the municipal administration. It was seen that AA sent messages to Yalım saying, “The number that called that day called again, look, it’s from the press and public relations, now Pervil calls me and she calls me again. Please talk to that President Ömer, why are they calling me so hard? I don’t want to pick up and talk. Are you still asleep? Thank God, what time do you go to bed at night?”

In another correspondence, AA was found to have said, “My dear, will Pervil call me when I don’t get to work in the morning? I wish you had asked me if she starts work on Monday, does she need to go to work?” and Yalım replied, “You go get your card on Monday afternoon or go to the president on Tuesday morning.” It was revealed that AA shared documents regarding the recruitment process in the WhatsApp group called “Happy Girls”, which she established with her friends. It was determined that the images included Bornova Municipality’s “Personnel Information Form” and that AA was sending messages saying “I think I’m really starting to work.”

THE TERM ‘KOKO’ IN THE MESSAGES DRAWED ATTENTION

During the telephone investigation, not only the recruitment process but also correspondence indicating different criminal elements were detected.

It was determined that the content of the message included messages such as “Today we will hang out with Sarp, I will move on to the star. We will make Coco”, and in another correspondence, there were messages such as “Kenan came. He brought Koko”.

PAVION IMAGES ARE EMERGED

Videos were found on Yalım’s phone regarding his past connections with the entertainment industry and pavilions. It was determined that AA was working in these places and was recruited by Yalım and placed in Bornova Municipality. It was determined that Yalım Garden facility was an entertainment center in the past and was converted into a wedding hall during the AK Party period.

“THERE IS NO MEANING IN WAITING”

Stating that the ball is now in the Parliament’s court in the terror-free Türkiye process, Bahçeli emphasized that the process should proceed quickly against sabotage. Bahçeli used the following statements:

“Politics has done its part here. Now it is time for concrete steps to be taken in the Parliament. Necessary laws must be passed without extending the period, whether it is the issue of sick and elderly convicts or other issues. If it is prolonged, internal and external structures will not stand idle against this process. There is no point in waiting. It is not possible to get anywhere with identity politics and sectarian divisions. There is no winner in this. It is essential to avoid painful statements that will increase fragility. It must be carried out with patience and common sense.

The terror-free Türkiye process is not just a security issue. It is a multidimensional breaking moment that will shape Türkiye’s future. We have to look at the PKK issue from a historical perspective, not from a narrow framework. The terrorism problem cannot be explained only by internal dynamics.

Any analysis without seeing the impact of the regional and global players around us will be incomplete. When this issue is resolved, it will not only be in the field of security; There will be relief in a wide range of areas, from economy to diplomacy, from social peace to state capacity. “The process should proceed with legal and democratic steps under the roof of the Turkish Grand National Assembly.”

“The fight against terrorism is not only a military issue,” said MHP Chairman Bahçeli, adding: “The fight against terrorism is also the subject of a historical and geopolitical claim. Turkey must develop a versatile mind that establishes a balance between the East and the West. This mind and will has the power to make Türkiye a polar head in the long run.”

“SYRIA AND LEBANON CAN ACT TOGETHER

“Discussing the war in the Middle East, Bahçeli commented on the attacks on Iran as ‘Unjustified’. The MHP leader made the following assessment on this issue:

Bahçeli made the following assessment on this issue: “The attacks of the USA and Israel against Iran are unjustified. Every tension in our region paves the way for new fractures and new confrontations. Syria and Lebanon can act together in this equation. This can create a new geopolitical line in the Middle East. Turkey should act with a broad-perspective security and foreign policy approach in this process.

Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan had telephone conversations with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Arakchi and Pakistani Foreign Minister Muhammad Ishaq Dar.
