Trump's remarks about Erdoğan drove Özgür Özel crazy.

Republican People's Party (CHP) Chairman Özgür Özel evaluated the statements of the elected President of the USA, Donald Trump, regarding President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, saying, "He praises him, but at the same time, using certain common words, he is subtly threatening that 'if you are not smart.' We were ashamed of the first letter, and we feel great shame from these statements as well."

ÖZEL'S REACTION TO TRUMP'S STATEMENTS

CHP leader Özgür Özel and Ankara Metropolitan Mayor Mansur Yavaş answered questions from the press after their visit to the BAKAP Agricultural Campus and Renewal Area, called "ATAM Farm," organized by the Ankara Metropolitan Municipality.

In response to a question about the statements of Donald Trump, who was elected as the 47th President of the USA, regarding President Erdoğan, Özel said: "We have experienced a process where Trump, in previous periods, started with 'Be smart, don't be stupid' to Erdoğan and included threats like 'Otherwise, I will ruin your economy,' and then did what he said, obtaining the desired Pastor Brunson through this method. There is a letter of shame, and this letter of shame was swallowed, gulped, and digested by those who supposedly love this country's president very much, support him, call him 'Reis,' and exalt him."

"WE FEEL GREAT SHAME"

We found this unacceptable at that time. Now, Trump has a series of praises. But the tone is the same tone. He looks down, as if he is his big brother. He is almost patting him on the back. He praises him while subtly threatening that 'if you are not smart' using certain common words. We were ashamed of the first letter, and we feel great shame from these statements."
