Lawyer Hüsnü Öndül from Human Rights Association (İHD), talked to bianet about the recent incidents in Turkey:
“Bombings, messages of government show us we will enter a very dangerous period and a war government will be formed. A war government shouldn’t be formed, the democratic public opinion should press for the negotiation process.”
“The government stopped resolution process and made laws like Internal Security Package restricting human rights and freedoms and then performed operations and bombings.
“Justice and Development Party (AKP) which lost its chance to come to power alone gives signals of a war government. These operations not try to solve problems but try to destroy them as Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) wanted.
“To join this kind of government means joining a war government. However, we defend peaceful resolutions. We are worried that these dangerous incidents will go on.
“A government which will make democratic reforms and reparative laws is needed right now. The interim government only informed MHP and Republican People’s Party (CHP) about the operations not Peoples’ Democratic Party (HDP). It indicates a war government will be formed.
“Senior bureaucrats and interim government create war policies. The government doesn’t behave as a government; it behaves like an extension of a specific political party.” (AS/BD)
