President Erdoğan, commenting on the days-long Kılıçdaroğlu-Özel crisis in the CHP, said, "Their agenda only consists of a fight for seats and insults. There is the act of labeling those they declared heroes yesterday as traitors today. They once did the same to their former presidential candidates who came running when called. What is happening is, of course, an internal matter of the main opposition party. It does not concern us."
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan made statements regarding the agenda at the Renewable Energy Investments Collective Opening Ceremony.
Referring to the crisis in the CHP following the court's "absolute nullity" decision, Erdogan used the following expressions:
"If you notice, these developments, these figures are absolutely not on the agenda of the main opposition. They are neither interested in the country's issues nor do they follow what is happening in the world. Their agenda consists solely of a power struggle and insults. Yesterday they proclaim heroes, today they brand them as traitors. They once did the same to former presidential candidates who came running when they were called. They lynched him for days. Even if it involves pain and persecution, he has gone through the turn of being a traitor and collaborator, and now his place has been taken by someone else. Tomorrow, those applauded today will likely face similar accusations.
"WHAT IS HAPPENING IS AN INTERNAL MATTER OF THE MAIN OPPOSITION PARTY"
Until this unhealthy mindset that has taken the main opposition captive changes, it seems everyone will be put on the target board one day. As long as the distorted mentality of those who see politics as a career and profit door instead of a means of serving the people does not change, new shameful scenes will likely be added tomorrow. What is happening is, of course, an internal matter of the main opposition party. It does not concern us. We are content to watch all these debates, which we deem unfit for Turkish politics, from a safe distance."
