With the decision taken against the risk of a trustee in the CHP, the party's chairman will be determined at the 21st Extraordinary Congress to be held today. The congress will start at 10:00 AM at the Nazım Hikmet Cultural Center in Ankara. CHP Chairman Özgür Özel has re-nominated himself for the congress. Özel's opponents are Ümit Uysal and Berhan Şimşek.
If a majority is not achieved in the first meeting, a second meeting will be held today at 1:00 PM. Extraordinary congresses are usually held upon the request of a certain member ratio according to the party's statute or by the decision of the party administration, in important decisions or crisis situations.
IMAMOGLU DETAIL
The preparations in the hall for the CHP's extraordinary congress are largely completed. In a photo taken in the congress hall, the detail of Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality (IBB) President Ekrem İmamoğlu, who was arrested and sent to Marmara Prison in Silivri as part of an investigation launched against the IBB, and was suspended from duty, drew attention. A symbolic chair was reserved for İmamoğlu at the congress, with "Presidential candidate" written on it.
LETTER FROM IMAMOGLU
Ekrem İmamoğlu sent a letter to the delegates before the 21st Extraordinary Congress. In his letter, İmamoğlu conveyed a message of determination, stating, "We will continue on our path in the light of our principles. Our party will prioritize the necessity of completing its national duty above all opinions, will walk with dedication and determination in line with the fundamental principles of our Republic, and will surely succeed. No matter what they do, we will succeed," he said. At Özel's call, an 'Ankara Rally' will be held in front of the Nazım Hikmet Cultural Center at 4:00 PM. Additionally, citizens will be able to follow the congress from giant screens set up outside the hall. Özel invited former chairpersons Altan Öymen, Hikmet Çetin, Murat Karayalçın, and Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu to the congress by phone.
IMAMOGLU'S EFFECTIVE SHADOW CABINET CLAIM
After the congress, Özel will determine the Central Executive Board (MYK) from the new Party Council. In the 24-member MYK formed after the 38th Ordinary Congress, 18 people had formed the "shadow cabinet." This time, it is on the agenda to structure the "shadow cabinet" not directly from the MYK, but in a way that will take active roles in the election campaign. The plans of the declared presidential candidate Ekrem İmamoğlu to establish offices in Ankara and Istanbul also indicate this new structuring. In party circles, it is being discussed that the shadow cabinet will be shaped according to İmamoğlu's preferences.
