" However, when SETimes asked Tolga Akalin, a lawyer for arrested Ergenekon suspect Kemal Kerincsiz, he argued "Ergenekon is Turkey being tuned to the new world order through law." The pre-AKP traditions of Turkey were in disharmony with the current global order, according to Akalin, who believes supporters of the previous order were eliminated from the system with an unlawful trial based on a nonexistent organisation.
Međutim, kada je SETimes isto pitanje postavio Tolgi Akalinu, advokatu jednog od osumnjičenih Kemala Kerinčiza, on je rekao da je „Ergenekon u stvari pokušaj da se Turska suđenjima prilagodi novom svetskom poretku“. Praksa i običaji u Turskoj pre AKP bili su u neskladu sa postojećim globalnim poretkom, kaže Akalin, koji veruje da su pristalice prethodnog poretka uklonjene iz sistema nezakonitim suđenjima nepostojećoj organizaciji.
