Temelli: We will say 'No' to the Libya draft 2019-12-30 12:35:59 BATMAN - HDP Co-chair Sezai Temelli, speaking at his party's congress, stating that they will say 'No' to the Libya draft, said: "It is time for us to oppose with all our power. These drafts bring destruction to the peoples. We will not let this." The 3rd Ordinary Congress of HDP (Peoples' Democratic Party) Batman Provincial Organization saw the participation of party's co-chair Sezai Temelli, Peace Mothers, Batman municipality co-chairs Korkmaz Songul and Mehmet Demir, Azadi Party representative Ihsan Poles, Turkey Kurdistan Democratic Party (PDK-T) deputy chair Ertan Recebanli and representative of civil society organizations.   Temelli began his speech by paying tribute to the victims of the Roboski Massacre and to Cihan Can, who lost his life after being run over by a police vehicle.    Underlining the destruction of 12000-year-old historical site of Hasankeyf, Temelli underlined that "this government has a destructive culture. We must take care of Hasankeyf."   Temelli also spoke of another project which will have a huge ecological cost, Canal Istanbul.   'WE WILL PROTECT OUR WILL'   Referring to the trustee policy of the government, Temelli said: "The government is continuing with the political coup, ignoring the will of the honorable people. We will continue to defend the right of this people. We will continue to claim our will. They carry out all sorts of attacks. They can't do anything but violence. The Kurdish people have been resisting for decades. Now is the time to come together, to fight together. We call on the people of Turkey. Because the government is taking our right to vote and be elected from our hands. We will not allow this."   Temelli also reminded of the isolation imposed on Kurdish People's Leader Abdullah Ă–calan and added that they would continue to struggle to end the isolation and the State of Emergency.   Talking about the Idlib crisis and the Turkish government's concern that "80,000 refugees could come to Turkey", Temelli said: "Who created this situation in Idlib? Who created this situation in Syria?"   Temelli added: "While the Syrian peoples have built their own lives and opened a new solution, Turkey is attacking again with ISIS. Anyone who does not follow them is a terrorist in their eyes. They're out of control. The real terrorist is this government. What happened in Idlib is the summary of a ten-year term."   NO TO LIBYA DRAFT   Temelli said that they would say no to the Libyan motion to be brought to Parliament in January: "The war in Syria is not enough and now they want to get to Libya. They want this motion because they want to sell more weapons."
