Gökkan who underlined that the AKP Government is a misogynist government, said: "We are calling on to everyone, the women will have to protect the ballot boxes on the election day. They have to raise their voices whereever they are I am calling on to everyone who wants democracy and peace against AKP-MHP fascism: the society will have a break down if the isolation is not terminated. We have to knock every door and warn everyone about the AKP-MH fascism. This is the only way to strengthen the resistance against fascism. Leyla Güven said, the hunger can not kill me, but the silence can. AKP-MHP fascism is willingly staying silent about the hunger strikes. But the election will be a voice for the hunger strikes."
