Turkey should be the epitome of modernism, quality, love and art. Young people and women should be completely free.

Kurds are the ornaments, the light and beauty of Turkey. They are noble, honorable, loyal and extremely brave. They’re the children of Said Nursi.

The PKK doesn't represent the Kurdish people. Kurdish people are devout Muslims. No one should make the mistake of equating the Kurds with the PKK.

Turkey has a very rich culture of social graces that cannot be found in other countries. European etiquette is rather limited while the Anatolian one is quite rich.

There is no war between Turks and Kurds in Turkey. Turkey defends itself against terror. The Kurds are the jewels in our crown.

The most humane, merciful and generous country towards refugees is Turkey. The world admires the compassion of Turkey.

Kurds are the jewels in our crowns; they are our beloved ones. We defend ourselves not against Kurds, but against the Marxist, Leninist, irreligious and Godless terror organization, the PKK.

People always use harsh tones; this is not right. Kurds are dignified people. We need to defeat the scourges that have been pestering them.

It wouldn't be becoming for Turkey to act with ill temper. Problems can't be settled with harshness. Wisdom and compassion is needed.

Turkey should be the center of love, teacher of love for the whole world. We should be the ones that encourage love, goodness in the world.

When we say ‘Turk’, we refer to everyone in Turkey; Turks, Kurds, Armenians, Greeks, Circassian etc. We don't care about people’s genes.

I love Armenians, I love Jews, Catholics, Orthodox, all Christians. I love everyone whom God has created.

The existence of the Greek, the Armenians and the Jews in our country are a beauty. They are the ornaments of our country and we consider all of them as brothers and sisters. It is virtually impossible to run into a Jew in any other Islamic country, whereas they should be and live comfortably all around the world.

The Armenian genocide allegations are fallacious. One cannot call a war 'genocide, war is called war. Both sides sustain loses in war. What does genocide mean? If one side does not take arms and fight, and the other side comes and annihilates them; then this is called 'genocide'.

It’s unacceptable that the captured PKK militants turned out to be Armenian commanders. We have to send a diplomatic note to Armenia.

Turks, Kurds, Arabs, Circassians will all unite. Islamic Union will be formed and our Kurdish brothers will eradicate the PKK with their own hands. Our Kurdish brothers in the entire region will live as freely as they like. We will not let red communists oppress them.

We are a modern, secular, enlightened, democratic community that takes everything beautiful as a basis, that demands what is elegant and high-quality, that are keen on what is lawful and what is not.

No one should be criticized for making her/his own choice based on good conscience. People should choose freely in a democratic atmosphere.

We, the Turks, respect peaceful, democratic communists, but will not accept those that resort to violence.

There is no such thing as ‘the freedom to insult’ in any democratic country. Criticism and opinions must be expressed within the boundaries of respect.

Democratic displays and protests are the rights of every citizen but vandalism or attacking security officers is unacceptable. A society that talks, discusses, opposes the things they dislike and defends their different opinions is a beautiful society. But violence is never acceptable as a method.

Alevi, Kurdish, Turkish, Circassian; such discriminations are all created artificially. We, as a nation, are the casts of the same mold. There is no difference in between, there is no original aspect in any of these. We've melted in each other anyway, we are brothers and sisters that live together. We have no significant aspect that we differ from each other.

Turkish, Kurdish, Laz, Circassian.. They are all equal. There is no one in Turkey who claims otherwise.

All those people living in Turkey are Turkish. Even if we come from Circassian origin, even if we are Arabs, Laz or Kurds; when asked we all give this response proudly. The name of the land we live on is Turkey.

The PKK is a Marxist, Leninist terrorist organizations. They are not Zoroastrians.
