Sahan kaže da takozvano AKP-ovo "otvaranje prema Alevitima", pokrenuto 2007. uz niz drugih inicijativa usmjerenih na to da se unaprijedi proces demokratizacije u zemlji, nije riješilo probleme Alevita.
Sahan said that AKP's so-called "Alevi opening", which was launched in 2007 along with a series of other initiatives meant to further the country's democratisation process, had not solved the problems of Alevis.
