HUDA PAR Deputy Chairman Mehmet Yavuz announced his party election manifesto in a press statement in Istanbul for the parliamentary elections that to be held on June 24. Reminding that HUDA PAR has supported the referendum that brought the presidential system of government held on April 16, 2017, in order to halt partly the bureaucratic oligarchic structures of tutelage regime in administrative, in military, and in judiciary, Yavuz stated that that is why the most important issue for HUDA PAR is a fair constitution, which must be in in the axis of the history of these lands and includes the value of these lands. Kurdish issue also took a large part in the manifesto of HUDA PAR, which covers 20 main headings relate to the Turkiye's domestic and foreign policy. Messages that stand out in the HUDA PAR Election Manifesto: LANGUAGE AND STYLE Stating that the style of ruling and opposition political institutions for a long time are violating political kindness, Yavuz continued to say: "This contradiction results in polarization in society. This result has nothing to do but a play into the hands of the global imperialist forces and collaborators who are trying to take our territory to confrontation with the chaos of our differences. No matter how different our approaches to our cases are, we have to be in accordance with the style, political discipline and human dignity we would prefer. The phrase "your attitude determines your altitude" is also pointing to this truth." NEW CONSTITUTION AND NATIONAL WILL Yavuz stated that the 1982 coup Constitution prepared by the September 12 th military junta is like a crazy shirt clothed to this nation with the force of weapon, and underlined that the claim of the vast majority of the people is a completely new constitution. Yavuz explained, "The new constitution must be a civilian constitution, free from tutelage and ideology. It should be done by taking into account the extent of the rights and justice that will enable different segments of the society to meet at common pens and not lead to the identification of any citizen as an alien or internal enemy. A new constitution should include a rule that it should not contain any rules against the belief of our Muslim people." FREEDOM OF THOUGHT (SAFETY OF MIND) Yavuz said, "The most distinctive feature reason for people are mind and thought, which the product of mind," Yavuz said and added that people depart from other creatures with their mental faculties. Stating that there should be intellectual freedom that minds can fulfill their function, Yavuz said: "A way to reach common mind also address the social concerns of members are sharing their thinking and ideas to find solutions to the problems of society. Social progress is possible with the presence of people who produce ideas. To block the thoughts is the greatest injustice to humanity and a cruelty to the human nature." FREEDOM OF BELIEFS AND RELIGIOUS SERVICES Yavuz said that everyone should be free to do the worship that is required in their own religion and religion except for the deviant beliefs contrary to human nature and creation. He also said that this liberty should be guaranteed with constitution and laws. Yavuz also stated that freedom of religion and conscience at the same time covers to fulfill the requirements of beliefs individually or collectively. It also covers to come together with the believers like themselves. He also added that all citizens of the state have the right to dress appropriately in accordance with their religious beliefs that this should be protected with a law in the constitution. Yavuz also stated that there should be no coercion and oppression towards the religions and the religious, and that the state should prevent any kind of oppression and intervention. PREVENTION OF RACISM AND DISCRIMINATION, ETHNIC AND RELIGIOUS MINORITIES "Everyone is equal in the face of the law," Yavuz said, saying that no person or group of people is superior to another person or group in front of the law.

2 "There is no discrimination in the delivery of public services. The State shall not discriminate among its citizens due to reasons of ethnicity, religion, sect, language and so on. Administrative, legal or economic discrimination should be connected to deterrent criminal sanctions," Yavuz said and added that the beliefs of minorities must be under constitutional guarantee. KURDISH ISSUE Relating to Kurdish issue, which took a large part in the election manifesto of HUDA PAR, Yavuz said that it has gained an international dimension by transcending locality and regionalism, has a negative effect on the country, the region and the whole geography of Islam, if it is not going to be solved. Yavuz continued to use the following expressions: The imperialist states, which try every way to ensure the security of the zionist occupation regime, to sabotage the concept of civilization of Islam, and to exploit underground-overground our wealth of resources, are making sly plans out of oppression and victimization of Kurdish people. It is obvious that this evilest coalition, led by the United States, is an invading occupant of our territory and that it is not friendly with any ethnic structure or belief there. In order to fulfill the necessity of justice and to prevent abuse of imperialism, we repeat this call, which we previously shared with the public on this occasion: "Although it is not on the agenda of long politics and the press, the Kurdish issue is still one of the most important issues to be solved. Many other issues that are now on the agenda of the country are directly or indirectly related to this issue. The solution of this issue will also contribute to the solution of other problems." "The states of Turkiye, Iran, Iraq and Syria, where the majority of Kurds live in, should stop using this issue against each other," Yavuz said and added that those countries should help each other in order to solve this issue. "It is the right time for solution. Legal regulations, not for the EU wants it or that someone will lay weapon down; should be made for the right of nationality, for the injustices and restlessness to be over, for the brotherhood to be reestablished and for the justice to be done. Not solving the issue causes an uneasy geography that has become open to imperialist interventions, waste of generations and resources and economic depression. Unconditional steps on fundamental rights are necessary. The state should abandon nation-state paradigm. The Kurds should recognized as one of the fundamental nation of the state and their identity should be seen in constitution. Economic, political, social, cultural privileges and discrimination should be abolished. The press on the language must come to an end. Everyone should be given the right to education in mother tongue and Kurdish should be an official language." EDUCATION Yavuz pointed out that the quality of education of a country reveals the level of civilization of that country and he said that the arrangements and changes made in the field of education have been insufficient recently. The real problem in education in Turkiye is to expose an imported education system itself that is foreign to the people's beliefs and values Yavuz said and under the title of Education he has included the following statements: "We regret that the mentality that sees educational institutions as the mechanism of grafting of the official ideology is not yet finalized. As long as this problem is not confronted and the issue of the problem is not ended, the serious problems of stability, quality and finally achievement in education will continue to multiply. In view of the current situation, there is a need for a new curriculum that blends knowledge with beliefs and values, from primary education to secondary education, even higher education. In addition, the single language requirement in education should be abolished and the education should be given by the state, especially in Kurdish and Arabic. In case of sufficient demand, the demanded language also must be opened for education, which the citizens speak. JUSTICE An anger and opposition against a person or a party should not lead state officials to injustice whom they have to practice justice said Yavuz and expressed the following statements: "There must never be a chance for the wet to burn with the dry. I regret to say that belief in justice in the society has reached to serious stage. The politicization of the jurisdiction, the attitude to the person according to his/her status, the length of long detention, and the fact that the victims of the Feb. 28 persecution and the victims of the FETO judiciary are still held in prisons, summarize the situation in which the justice fall mechanism into. State of Emergency Yavuz gave the following statements about the state of emergency and the aftermath of the coup d état on July 15: "The state of emergency was to be implemented in the wake of coup attempt that the government officials voiced it would not touch the citizens but the putschists. However unjustly detained in that stage and arrests, interview procedures on public workers of recruitment, security investigations, dismissed the arbitrary law such as non-issuance practices have shown that the state of emergency has not implemented to the putschists but to the citizens itself. Especially in areas where Kurdish people live majority have concentrated, security-justified applications that resembled the 90's have formed serious

3 grievances and have once again made the country a prime example of security policy. The suffering victims should be stopped immediately by taking backwardness of the rights and freedoms into account." ECONOMY Under the title of economics, Yavuz, who has given a wide evaluation, said that the Capitalism is a product of a relentless, brutal cult product that idolizes interest, divine personal profit. "The capitalist economic system, which has been applied to many countries of the world and to our country, has prisoned the family of humanity to poverty and even to hunger. Our belief is that; if there is someone in the world who needs a bite to food, there are certainly some people who consume or stock up on another corner." Evaluating the economics of the country, Yavuz said, "The eastern and southeastern Anatolian regions have a large potential for border trade but have been prevented from being used for this potential. Free trade zones should be established in the Iraqi, Iranian and Syrian border regions and new border gates should be opened and these neighboring countries should also be allowed to pass without passports like in Cyprus and Georgia to increase cross-border trade. Particularly, border trade and the problems of truckers' tradesmen should be resolved immediately. We reject the idea of an economics those not centered on people/humanity and reject those have moved away from the purpose of spreading benefit on people and are only locked in expanding the country's economy." Yavuz said that the country should be free from external dependence in terms of both industry and agricultural products. He said that the economic system based on interest should be abolished completely. TAX JUSTICE "A fair in a taxation system that installed on citizens tax burden should be commensurate with the citizen s wealth and revenues," Said Yavuz, and added that the tax system in Turkiye collecting less from the less earner and more from the big earner but in reality, the situation is that it is exactly the opposite. "The highest rate of tax paid by the small income. The share of indirect taxes received from consumer goods and services, salaries and wages at source, has a very high in total tax revenues, said Yavuz. "The disproportionate disadvantage of poor income citizens, who have to spend their entire profits in order to survive, so that they both earn and spend, must be resolved." FIGHT AGAINST WASTE [ISRAF], BRIBERY AND CORRUPTION "The reputation of the state based on the benefit of the citizen," he said and added that wasting and mercenariness is an economic disease. Yavuz continued; "The waste [israf] is the waste of blessings and must be avoided absolutely. Especially the waste of public resources is of worrisome dimension. The cause of wasting public resources is corruption. There are many reasons for corruption. But in the first place, there is a lack of ethics and spirituality. Inspections should be carried out effectively against corruption and bribery, which are our widespread disease, and there should be transparency in public spending." HEALTH AND HEALTHY NUTRITION Yavuz said that health services are the main tasks of the state and emphasized that citizens should be able to access this service easily and freely. Especially the areas that neglected and deprived for years should be focused on and deficiencies in the health services of these areas should be addressed urgently. Patients in need of continuous care should be provided with treatment, regardless of whether they are paying for the health or whether they are owed it. AGRICULTURE AND LIVESTOCK Expressing that a nation has a strategic prescription for agriculture in terms of self-sufficiency, Yavuz said, "Preventing foreign dependence on agricultural products is vital. For this reason, farmers should be protected as treasures. Half the irrigation facilities should be completed quickly, the amount of irrigable agricultural land should be increased. The industry based on agriculture should be encouraged and the farmer should be supported, not symbolically and figuratively, as needed, to increase production." WORK LIFE He stated that everyone is entitled to work in fair and favorable conditions, to freely choose their jobs and to be protected against unemployment. Yavuz said that diplomatic unemployment should be terminated. "Our young people should be provided with job opportunities in accordance with their profession and capabilities. Everyone has the right to rest, to choose a profession, to form an union or to become a member of the union; there is a fair and

4 equitable right to demand equal wages for equal work without regard to any discrimination, and to provide a life for himself and his family, which will lead to a life worthy of human dignity. Employers should be prevented to use power of their capital to persecute laborers and laborers should be prevented from harming the capital by using community power without a legitimate reason. Social security should be given to seasonal workers, their work conditions should be improved. Serious and dissuasive measures should be taken to prevent worker deaths," he said. MARRIAGE AND FAMILY ESTABLISHMENT (SAFETY OF GENERATION) Yavuz stated that every man and woman who came to the age of marriage had the right to marry and to set up a family. He said that the family is the core of society and the guarantee of its continuation. A healthy society is only possible with healthy families. For this reason, it is the duty of the state to protect the family establishment and encourage the family establishment. Funds should be allocated for citizens who cannot get married because of financial difficulties when they are at marriage age and want to get married," he added. "Family Protection Law should be abolished" Expressing that adultery has been accepted as haram and great immorality by majority, Yavuz said, "It is a certain truth that the adultery is destroying the atmosphere of peace, causing the confusion of the society and breaking the morality. Adultery, which decriminalized as the result of imposition of a secular understanding, must be described as a crime again. Any kind of non-moral institution that disrupts the peace of the family, and dynamizes the foundations of marriage must be removed. In this context, prosecution under state supervision and state gambling should be banned. The law which is put into effect by the name of the Family Protection Act is currently harming family and should be abolished. The victimization of thousands women, whose husband was jailed because she got married before she is 18 years old, and the children who are left without their father should be resolved. The arrangements made for the protection of the family should be prepared by taking our belief and custom into account." WOMAN "The provision of peace and tranquility is possible only through the training of individuals equipped with spiritual and moral values," Yavuz stated and added that the family is the first teacher of the people and that the woman who raised the society is woman. Yavuz continued to use the following expressions: "The fact that the woman is in the place she deserves and that she can fulfill her most important duty is one of the essentials of our social policy. Prevention of sexual and economic abuse of women, struggle against all kinds of violence against her and seeing her dearly deserved are our priority politics. Beliefs and societal values should be taken into consideration when making regulations about women. Attention should be paid to the employment of women in the work appropriate for their nature. Discriminatory practices and legal arrangements should be made to prevent violence and exploitation against women and children. Women's literacy rate and level of education should be increased. Reasons for compelling children to work should be removed. FOREIGN POLICY Assessing on Turkiye's foreign policy, Yavuz stated that Turkiye s foreign policy has been shaped in accidence with the interests of NATO since 1952 as Turkiye became a member of NATO. "The perspective that take the security interests of international powers and the zionist regime of terror into the center and defining it as a red line had distanced Turkiye quickly from the values of Islamic world, which Turkiye had lived in this civilization for centuries. The subject matter has not only dragged our country into unnecessary and dangerous tensions with its neighbors, but has even brought some neighbors to the brink of war from time to time. Yavuz, who also assessed the support government to the NATO member states for air attacks against Syria on April 18, 2018, said, "As we have often mentioned, in the case of Islamic geography, the following two issues need to be identified as redlines: 1 Weapon and violence should not be resorted, doesn t matter what the problem is. 2- Solving our problems with our inner dynamics among us and not imposing imperialism in any way. It is necessary to make this understanding absolutely dominant in foreign politics, especially in the Syrian issue, which opens the door to the unimaginable scars in the ummah and civilization. For this purpose, the solution of the Syrian issue should be taken by the regional states as a political solution center and the option of military solution should be totally disabled." "The government should put our membership application to the EU aside and scrutinize our NATO membership" Yavuz said that the Saudi Kingdom, which makes benefits the money of Ummah available to the US is hurting as much as the civil. In our foreign policy, we should get on with our neighbors. We must turn our face to the Islamic world. How to operationalize turning the Organization of Islamic Cooperation and the D-8, should be our main goal. The government should put our membership application to the EU aside urgently and scrutinize out NATO membership and take the initiative to establish a Ministry of Islamic Countries."

5 PALESTINE, AL-QUDS AND MESCID AL-AKSA Declared Jerusalem the capital of the zionist occupation regime, Yavuz stated that none of the Muslim countries to remain silence, used the following statements: "In this context, all the relations with the US, which paved the most critical way to the zionist invader regime to establish a great zionist occupation regime by moving its embassy to Al-Quds, should be scrutinized. All the relations with the zionist occupation regime must terminated. It should not be recognized as a state. Those who fight against the zionists should be supported. Those who cooperate with the zionist regime, should be included to the supporters of terrorism." RELATIONSHIP WITH THE IRAQI KURDISTAN REGION Stating that the relation between the Iraqi Kurdistan region and Turkiye was reasonable in politics, trade, education, culture and art in an extremely positive relationship until September 25, 2017 referendum, Yavuz indicating that the relation was also reacted positively in the unity of belief and common historical and that it is welcomed at the level of the peoples. "The highest level of style of Turkiye's attitude and hurtful prejudice against the September 25 referendum revealed that not only harmed to these achievements, but also the public has also resulted in breaking the psychological level. The present situation is not for the benefit of both people. In addition, opportunities should be established for close contact with Iraqi Kurdistan region and Kurds in neighboring countries; free circulation at commercial level should be provided in these regions. The manifesto ended with the; "The basic measure of a livable world and winning the life of the hereafter is JUSTICE.
