Özgür Özel and Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, who was appointed with an absolute nullity decision, spoke on the phone. During the conversation, Kılıçdaroğlu stated his intention to take the party to the congress at the most appropriate time. Özel expressed that he welcomed this intention with satisfaction.

The decision of "absolute nullity" given by the court in the lawsuit regarding CHP's 38th Ordinary Congress continues to impact the political agenda. With the decision, Özgür Özel and the current party administration were temporarily suspended from duty, while it was stated that Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu and the former administration would take over. Following the decision, the tension in CHP draws attention, with eyes turning to the communication between Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu and Özgür Özel.

"HE CALLED BUT I DIDN'T RETURN"

It was learned that after the developments, Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu called Özgür Özel on the phone last night. Özgür Özel, in his statement, said he did not return Kılıçdaroğlu's call, using the words, "He called but I didn't return. Anyway, what would we talk about."

THE EXPECTED MEETING TOOK PLACE

In another statement today, Özel said that this time he called Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, but his phone was off. After this statement, while discussions about the tension and lack of communication between the two figures continued, the expected phone call took place shortly after. During the call, Kılıçdaroğlu stated his intention to take the party to a congress at the most appropriate time. Özel expressed that he welcomed this intention with pleasure.

EYES ON THE NEW PROCESS IN CHP

As curiosity grows about what roadmap will be followed in CHP after the court's decision, political activity within the party continues.
