00:00 The regulations of the 1982 Pencil and Pencil, Pencil and Pencil, Veterans, and ETM
00:11 were approved by the military council.
00:14 They have been waiting for more than 10 years for this Pencil and Pencil,
00:19 because it is their right and it is the duty of the government.
00:24 I would like to remind the Ministry of Defense
00:27 that this veteran does not deny the government's sympathy,
00:31 but demands their rights.
00:33 For your information, Mr. Chairman and all honorable members of the government,
00:39 since 2013, I have never heard a single Minister of Defense,
00:44 including the current Minister of Defense,
00:46 who has been in consultation with the Ministry for almost a year
00:50 to bring this issue to be discussed in the Cabinet.
00:55 If you have, please let me know.
00:57 But I have never heard of it.
01:00 I am here to...
01:01 I am giving you an explanation.
01:04 How do you know that I have never brought it?
01:07 That's what I said.
01:08 If you have, please let me know.
01:10 But I have never heard of it.
01:11 I have brought it many times.
01:12 You have to tell me.
01:13 But the charge was withdrawn.
01:15 I withdrew it, but if it was brought, it was...
01:19 I brought it to the Cabinet.
01:21 The charge said that I did not bring it, so I withdrew it.
01:24 I withdrew it.
01:26 Because that's an accusation.
01:27 That's not a statement.
01:28 It's not an accusation.
01:29 I said...
01:30 I said... Listen to me.
01:32 I said, if it was brought, it's okay.
01:34 If it wasn't brought, then bring it.
01:36 I withdrew it.
01:37 I withdrew it.
01:38 Okay, bring it.
01:39 Okay, thank you.
01:40 Here, I urge the current Minister of Defense
01:44 to bring this issue of pension compensation
01:46 to be discussed in the Armed Forces Conference.
01:49 And ask him to bring this matter to the Cabinet.
01:52 The Cabinet will come to resolve this matter.
01:55 Thank you.
