	HAKKARİ- Vezir Parlak, who was nominated as a parliamentary candidate from the Green Left Party in Colemêrg(Hakkari), where he had to emigrate due to repression, said: "We will turn this people's resistance into a holiday on May 14."

	 

	After the selection of the candidates of the political parties in Kurdistan and Turkey, the election efforts accelerated. In Colemêrg, one of the cities where the electoral enthusiasm is at its peak, the interest of the candidates of the Greens and Left Future Party (Green Left Party) Vezir Parlak, Öznur Bartın and Onur Düşünmez is very high. Candidates' election work turns into a rally.

	 

	In the city where there were 168,258 voters in the 2018 general elections, the Peoples' Democratic Party (HDP) won 2 MPs with 70.2 percent of the votes, and the AKP 1 MPs with 23.8 percent. While 186,155 voters are expected to go to the polls in the city for the Presidential and general elections on May 14, Vezir Parlak, one of the candidates of the Green Left Party, aims to increase the vote rate in the city to 90 percent and make it 3/3.

	 

	THE CANDIDATE WAS FORCED IMMIGRATION TO ANKARA

	 

	Green Left Party Colemêrg MP candidate Parlak was born in 1989 in Çelê (Çukurca) district. In the early 90s, he was exposed to the pressure of the state in the district where he was born and grew up, and had to immigrate to Ankara with his family. Having studied Electronic Communication Technician at Van Yüzüncü Yıl University, Parlak started active politics in 2008. Brilliant, who took charge in various levels of BDP, DBP, HDP and HDK, came from the youth work of political parties and was elected as HDP's Ankara Provincial Co-Chair in the congresses in 2019 and 2022. Parlak said that they were exiled to a metropolis with the dreams left unfinished in their childhood.

	 

	Stating that since the 90s, the Kurdish people have been exposed to the assimilation policies of the state in the metropolises, Parlak said. "We are trying to be disciplined with unemployment. The struggle against the policies of extermination and denial has started with an ownership over their "Kurdish" identity.

	 

	'WE WILL BE THE KEY PARTY'

	 

	Stating that they can see that even those who voted for the AKP and MHP bloc in Colemêrg are now disturbed, Parlak said: "If we want to put a stop to this bad trend and the special war policies carried out in the region, we need to ensure that the Green Left Party is much stronger in the Parliament to gain a numerical majority. As a party, we will be the key party in the Parliament."
