While it is claimed that Özdemir, who resigned from the CHP, will join the AK Party on June 25, it is noted that this development could be one of the significant steps that might affect the political balance in Ankara.

SPECIFIES JUNE 25 DATE
Sharing insider information during the live broadcast, Burhan expressed that Nimet Özdemir, who resigned from CHP, and Nevşehir Mayor Rasim Arı, elected from İYİ Party, are expected to join AK Party ranks on June 25.
If these memberships take place, it is assessed that new political debates may arise on both CHP and İYİ Party fronts.
