In November 2021, the HDP presented their defense to the Constitutional Court together with the ruling of the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) on the closure case of the Democratic Society Party (DTP) in which Turkey was convicted and ordered to pay a remuneration.[20] The defense team condemned the fact that investigations are used as evidence for a political ban of 451 HDP politicians by the prosecution and maintained the view that for what the party is mainly accused of, are their efforts for the solution of the Kurdish Turkish conflict during the peace process between 2013 and 2015.[20] The right for peace is guaranteed by several international conventions and efforts in a peace building process should not become a subject matter for the closure case.[20]
