It was stated that Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu would speak at the CHP's group meeting to be held in the Turkish Grand National Assembly on Tuesday. Kılıçdaroğlu, whose decision is a matter of curiosity, responded to a question on the subject today, saying, 'I hope we will be together.' Özgür Özel's spokesperson Zeynel Emre, however, had objected in a previous statement, saying, 'These can be carried out in line with the group's decision.'
Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, appointed as the Chairman of the CHP by a court decision, gave the message "I hope we will be together" regarding the controversial group meeting planned for Tuesday.
In the Republican People's Party (CHP), the waters are not settling. The "authority" dispute between Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, appointed to the Chairmanship by a court decision, and the Özgür Özel camp has flared up this time over the group meeting in the Turkish Grand National Assembly (TBMM).
KILIÇDAROĞLU'S DECISION ON THE GROUP MEETING: I HOPE WE WILL BE TOGETHER
Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, who opened the meeting of the party's High Disciplinary Board (YDK), answered questions from the press afterwards. After the statement made yesterday by Kılıçdaroğlu's administration's party spokesperson Müslim Sarı, "On Tuesday, Kılıçdaroğlu will hold a group meeting at the TBMM," all eyes turned to Kılıçdaroğlu.
Responding to the comment from a TV100 reporter, "We will see you at the group meeting next week," Kılıçdaroğlu adopted a confident stance and said, "I hope we will all be together."
WHAT HAD HAPPENED?
Müslim Sarı, the party spokesperson for Kılıçdaroğlu's administration, announced yesterday in a statement that Kılıçdaroğlu would hold a group meeting at the TBMM on Tuesday.
Following this, Zeynel Emre, spokesperson for the elected CHP administration, recalled the response given by the Parliament Presidency to a previous application and said:
"A letter was written to the Parliament Presidency to prevent the group meeting on Tuesday. The Parliament Presidency responded in accordance with the regulations. It said, 'How political parties organize their own groups is defined in their internal regulations. Accordingly, the CHP conducted an election in line with its internal regulation. The Group Chairman is clear. The group deputy chairmen are clear.
Therefore, we cannot intervene in this matter.' It pointed out which group is authorized and elected. So these can be carried out in line with the group's decision. We would not want to think that the Speaker of the Parliament would reverse a decision made just a few days ago."
