THE CHIEF ADVISOR HAD ALSO MADE A STATEMENT
Previously, MHP General Chairman Chief Advisor Eyyup Yıldız stated, "With God's permission, he will start his work shortly after the recovery process."
Yıldız, in a post on his social media account, reminded the public of the text previously shared on the official page of the MHP Headquarters, saying: "Our leader, our Chairman Mr. Devlet Bahçeli, entered the Anadolu Health Center in Gebze, Kocaeli on February 4, 2025, for previously planned examinations, tests, and check-ups. As a result of the evaluations, an issue was detected in the heart valve he had previously undergone surgery on, and a successful interventional operation was performed."
Yıldız, who stated that Bahçeli would return to work shortly, said, "As of February 14, 2025, our esteemed Chairman, who completed his treatment process, returned to Ankara after being discharged, and with God's permission, he will start his work shortly after the recovery process."
Criticizing the news about Bahçeli, Yıldız stated, "However, the fear of the enemies of Turkey, the treason networks, and the centers of discord has once again come to light. Traitors who have not received their share from Allah, the nation, and justice are trying to distort the truth through slander and defamation campaigns on social media."
Yıldız noted that legal processes regarding the news about Bahçeli have been initiated, stating, "No matter what they do, no matter what slanders they throw, the will of the one with strong faith will also be strong! 'The wolf survives the winter but does not forget the cold it has suffered!' We will not forget either! All technical and legal processes regarding these despicable campaigns conducted over our leader's health are being carried out meticulously, and those who spread this discord are being identified one by one."
