the press and to 'public opinion Since 1993 and strives to meet the need for a peaceful solution without violence and the Kurdish question. That is why I asked four times to make the cease-fire, each time without result. For ten years I am convinced that violence can only come up at some point. Not a permanent solution is reached. At most you can destroy a state, but the destruction of the roof so bury ourselves as the state. Therefore I am convinced of the need for a cessation of arms. It spread a lot of blood, both sides have died in many, although they did open a decisive way. The public is aware of our efforts in the early stages of non-belligerence, it is unnecessary to describe them in detail, but these efforts were in vain and that due to our state. From a somewhat 'time in Turkey, reasonable people, who love democracy and various groups outside their urgent desire for a cessation of arms and peace. Therefore it is necessary to stop the bloodshed and give peace another chance. A democratic solution to Turkey through democratic steps taken now will also serve as an example to other countries of the Kurdish question. Turkey would then become a model for democracy throughout the Middle East. This would be in favor of all peoples in the Middle East, where there is heavy fighting and great dangers threatening humanity. This can only be overcome if democracy is affirmed. the development of a democratic culture in our country has the ability to form a unity and democratic alliance between Turks and Kurds and is therefore of utmost importance for the future of our peoples. This process will also open the way to democratic dialogue. We try to do together so that in Turkey and the Middle East arms is often not the way to get things. Bury their weapons. To achieve all this I shall contribute, by inviting the PKK to lay down their weapons. I hope that the PKK will seize this invitation and will arrive at the desired result. This process of storage of weapons is very important, but not enough. There are many things essential to be made later. First, this process must gain stability: one can indeed verify provocation, I do not think, however, by the PKK. But even then you should give up and not make a fuss. Neither party should leave cause, but should persevere in the peace process with sincerity. It may happen that the military, for security reasons, takes certain decisions. This can be tackled with understanding, but I hope that the army does not make large trades. For the other part is, as I have repeatedly emphasized, the same self-defense is an inalienable right and a duty. The PKK will not use much weapons until there will be actions of annihilation against them. For advancing the peace process is necessary to act with a sense of responsibility. The cease weapons should not be interpreted as a sign of weakness, as happened in the past. Everyone must know that it is the result of an urgent desire for social peace. In this process we get together the democratic unity among Kurds and Turks. If the process that begins now is well exploited can lead to a re-establishment of democratic republic. May again arouse enthusiasm, dynamism and unity. The prime minister said something that I find meaningful: "We can make the Turkey is a special country, which can act as a model for the entire Middle East. "This is exactly what I want too. I call upon the summit of the state when I say: We can make Turkey, for its special conditions, a model country for the Middle East. Come, let's set all that is necessary for peace in the Middle East can only be achieved through the unity between Turks and Kurds. The basis for such a project, we can only build within ourselves of our common country. To do this you need to speak to everyone: to all groups in Turkey, with the press, political parties, civil society organizations and all those who show interest and contribute to the peace process. From a democratic solution, peace based on dialogue and all would profit greatly. I act in good faith and I expect that the state suit. If my arguments were heard, if giungessimo peace, Turkey would be a leap forward in all fields, got rid of a great weight, it would restore its economy, would gain estimate in the Middle East became the political model. Even EU countries and forces in Southern Kurdistan should make their contribution. You should talk with Iran, Iraq and Syria to entice them to peacefully resolve the Kurdish question within their respective territories. The EU and the U.S. should lend their support or at least not to obstruct the peace process. I hope that all groups involved will seize this appeal in a responsible and meticulous and will not continue to ignore the real need for peace and the possibility that the peace process itself offers without exploitation. It could be our last chance. If this process is not used properly and with sincerity, developments may reach a point of no return. If there is no result this time, I feel unable to make another call and also the PKK does not listen to me anymore. That is what this truce is so important and must be exploited. Why in Medio Oriente si possa formare una cultura democratica, perché si possa formare l’unità ed un patto turco-kurdo, perché l’attuale sofferenza si trasformi in pace dignitosa e felicità, per una vita libera, perché i nostri popoli non debbano più soffrire, perché possiamo guadagnare dieci volte ciò che abbiamo perduto e per raggiungere amore e tolleranza reciproci, io invito tutti i responsabili ad agire. Sono convinto che questo processo rappresenti una grande occasione e mi auguro che una tregua su queste basi possa rappresentare un buon inizio.
