Tunay participated in the TGRT NEWS live broadcast on December 7, 2025 and spoke about the process.
Was there a Kurdish problem in this country? Of course there was, there's no need to hide it, but during the time of the AK Party, which I criticize the most, very radical steps were taken and progress was made. What more is wanted? he asked.
He said, "Today, the best places in nightlife, venues and holiday resorts belong to Kurds. How nice, there is no need for discrimination. I have difficulty understanding how Kurds are victims."
Tunay said that democratization steps should continue, but education in the mother tongue and autonomy are not possible, and added that the Turkish problem should not arise while solving the Kurdish problem.
