During President Erdoğan's visit to Bodrum, he was welcomed by several people, including Tamer Mandalinci, the CHP mayor of Bodrum. This reception, which was conducted according to protocol, drew criticism from some CHP members. Calls for Mandalinci's expulsion from the party were made on social media.
President Erdoğan arrived in the Bodrum district of Muğla by helicopter. Among those welcoming Erdoğan was Tamer Mandalinci, the CHP mayor of Bodrum. The reception that Mandalinci held as part of the protocol drew reactions from some party members.
IT DISTURBED CHP MEMBERS
CHP Mayor Mandalinci was among those welcoming the President alongside Yaşar Yıldız, the AK Party Bodrum District Chairman, at the stadium where Erdoğan landed. However, this image was deemed "unacceptable" by some CHP members.
"HE SHOULD BE IMMEDIATELY EXPELLED FROM THE PARTY"
In social media posts, Mandalinci's reception of Erdoğan was interpreted as "contrary to the party's stance." Some users expressing their reactions called for "Tamer Mandalinci to be immediately expelled from the party."
No official statement has yet been made regarding the issue from Mandalinci's side, who was naturally expected to be there as part of the protocol.
