The Chairman of the Future Party, Ahmet Davutoğlu, answered questions from News Director Olgun Kızıltepe and Melis Yaşar in the studios of Haberler.com. Evaluating the current issues, Davutoğlu had harsh words for Bolu Mayor Tanju Özcan.

DAVUTOĞLU'S "YEZID" REFERENCE

Davutoğlu stated about Özcan, "If the presidential election had been won, they would have applied revenge against us first. They couldn't stand it. I had only one intention, to prevent Turkey from falling into a trap of revenge. Has that danger ended? It hasn't ended again, in 2028, what could the CHP mentality, which cannot even tolerate us, lead to? We see it. I exempt the reasonable people within the CHP, those who engage in decent politics... But there is a mayor, a shameless man, the one who cuts off the water of the poor, helpless refugees... This is the morality of Yezid, cutting off the water of Hz. Hussein in Karbala... This man, who possesses the morality of Yezid, criticizes me. Last year, he was also present at the Akşamseddin memorial ceremonies. I said while addressing, Akşamseddin was from Damascus. He migrated to Bolu during the Timur War. This man, who is now criticizing me, is the one who knocked on his own party leader's door with a truck. What happens if he criticizes, what happens if he doesn't?"

RESPONSE FROM TANJU ÖZCAN TO DAVUTOĞLU

Tanju Özcan, who made a statement on his social media account, said, "The one who calls me a 'shameless man' is the shameless one; you turned Turkey into a refugee farm, you kidnapped the Süleyman Shah Tomb. After being expelled from the AKP, you deceived Kılıçdaroğlu and attached yourself to the CHP, and now you are doing somersaults to return to the AKP. Then you get up and call a patriot 'shameless man'! Get out of here!"
