We'll search for solutions not in violence, but in parliament."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.voanews.com/english/archive/2007-07/2007-07-16-voa27.cfm?moddate=2007-07-16 )〕 She featured in the 2008 film “What a beautiful democracy” about the struggle of Turkish women running for parliament.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.filmist.org/news.htm )〕 At the beginning of 2009 it was reported that she had prepared a bill to enable the Kurdish language to be used in the public space.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.info-turk.be/365.htm )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://bianet.org/english/minorities/111740-democratic-society-party-submits-bill-to-remove-the-obstacles-before-kurdish )〕 In 2014 she was elected first female mayor of Diyarbakır. == External links == * (Official website of the DTP ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gültan Kışanak」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
