Therefore, it is necessary to believe that democracy is needed by everyone and sit down and debate. It is necessary in general to debate democracy in parliament. If necessary, we will talk with nongovernmental organizations and institutions, but I will neither enter such a debate outside of parliament nor accept it. Today, democracy is necessary for the Kurds, tomorrow for those who say their ritual prayers, the next day for the soldiers. That won't do.
Democracy is necessary for everyone.
The parliament is a parliament elected by the people. I won't participate in a democracy debate to be held outside of parliament. But if there is to be a debate inside parliament, I'm always ready. We, as citizens of this country, are among those who want this most. We are always ready to give support to an initiative that would serve the development of democracy in Turkey and at least carry the subject of democracy to the public, no matter by whom it is done, no matter who makes the call, no matter who organizes it.
