Questions Over Ocalan Insult Turkish People

Leader of the Republican People's Party (CHP) Deniz Baykal has commented
that calls from domestic and foreign circles to re-try terrorist leader
Abdullah Ocalan would cause more pain for 70 million people.

Baykal made a speech at a party meeting in Ankara yesterday (March 29)
saying that because of the desecration of the Turkish flag in Mersin in
the south of Turkey, the entire country had hung out red flags
everywhere as a reaction. Stressing that this spontaneous enthusiasm
should not be misinterpreted, Baykal said: "Many media have tried to
distort the incident with headlines on the revival of fascism or
pointing out the sales of the book 'Mein Kampf'. Yet, the fact is that
the people want to defend their flag. It is a public reaction to an
accumulation of injustices against Turkey over a long time. No one needs
to worry, it is impossible for Turkey to be fall under a totalitarian
regime." The CHP leader criticized those asking for a re-trial of 'Apo'
(the nickname for Ocalan) saying that the government had given no
response to these developments. "If the government remains silent, then
crowds filling the squares must speak. People want a reaction from
official authorities against these disrespectful acts, but the
government stays silent," said Baykal.
