In the Republican People’s Party (CHP), which emerged victorious in the March 31 elections, former Chairman Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu’s desire to maintain his presence in politics continues to cause a crisis within the party. Kılıçdaroğlu’s decision to open an office and his efforts to continue his political activities are causing controversy within the party.
The Claim That Confused Ankara
The allegation, which was put forward in the past days, had mobilized the political lobbies in Ankara. It was claimed that a CHP executive went to Kılıçdaroğlu and said, “Let’s replace Özgür Özel with Ekrem İmamoğlu, support him.”
Statement from Kilicdaroglu
Former CHP Chairman Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, who broke his silence on the issue, said in his speech, “I do not want to get into such discussions. Yes, we had a short meeting with Ekrem Bey during the holiday. However, I have difficulty understanding the source of these accusations and why they were put forward.”
“We talked to Ekrem Bey during the holiday, but that was all.”
