00:00The court today has four different arguments.
00:03So, I'll ask you to state the four arguments or the values.
00:08Please comment.
00:09First of all, as a democracy country, we accept the court's view.
00:17But in terms of my hope,
00:20if, as was said earlier, it is a trap.
00:24So, when it's a trap, I hope the court will say
00:29what is not accepted, what is the solution.
00:31That is the meaning of the argument.
00:33But whatever it is, I respect their view.
00:36And I look forward to it, in black and white,
00:39from them, in every letter.
00:42And when the time comes, I will bring an argument
00:45at the level of public administration,
00:47the argument of the government.
00:52And from there, we will discuss again
00:55whether we want to proceed with the hearing,
00:58or whether the court has decided
01:03that they do not want to continue the hearing.
01:06I am not sure.
01:07Because what has been stated,
01:09they do not agree with all the conditions.
01:12Therefore, I do not know their opinion,
01:14whether they want to continue the hearing or not.
01:17But whatever it is, I will inform the judges,
01:19the authorities, the hearing committee,
01:22the judges,
01:24whether we want to evaluate their opinion,
01:27whether we want to continue the hearing,
01:30or whatever it is, I will inform them.
01:32That is my guarantee to the authorities.
01:34So, the discussion will be in the near future?
01:37I do not know.
01:38Because I have not received a letter.
01:40I only received a description from the newspaper,
01:43the statement of the court.
01:45Because this hearing has to be done officially.
01:47Because I sent a letter officially.
01:50And I hope there will be an official answer from them,
01:54whether there is a request,
01:55whether there is a reply,
01:57or what is their actual opinion.
01:59That's what I'm not sure.
02:01So, based on what has been reported,
02:04I will report it to the authorities,
02:06and get a response from them.
