Activity increases at Kılıçdaroğlu's office, eyes within the party turn to that date
While the intra-party opposition in the CHP is demanding an extraordinary convention, the party headquarters plans to initiate the regular convention process. While a meeting between Kılıçdaroğlu and İmamoğlu is expected soon, the intra-party opposition wants to take action before January 1 to request an extraordinary convention. The recent activity at Kılıçdaroğlu's office has raised the question, 'Will Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu be a candidate for chairman?'
The Ankara office of former CHP Chairman Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu has been experiencing quite busy days recently. The reason is the convention demands that have come to the agenda within the CHP.
ÖZEL WANTED TO END THE DISCUSSIONS
According to the report on Ekol TV, political circles have begun to experience extremely active days following the intra-party opposition's demand for an extraordinary convention in the CHP. Upon the increasing criticism within the party, CHP Chairman Özgür Özel had wanted these convention discussions to end. In his statement regarding the matter, Özel said,
"From now on, no CHP member should occupy the party and the public with such inward-looking agendas."
INTRA-PARTY OPPOSITION PRESSURES HEADQUARTERS FOR REGULAR CONVENTION
While the voices within the party did not cease after this statement by Özel, the CHP has also placed the regular convention on its agenda.
According to the CHP bylaws, the convention can be initiated before January 1 according to the regular congress calendar. Once the congress calendar is announced, a request for an extraordinary convention cannot be made. The congress calendar can also be spread over up to 2 years.
WILL KILIÇDAROĞLU AND İMAMOĞLU MEET?
Against these calculations, the intra-party opposition aims to convene an extraordinary convention before January 1.
In addition to deputies close to Kılıçdaroğlu, party members and delegates who are uncomfortable with Özgür Özel are visiting Kılıçdaroğlu at his office frequently these days. Whether Kılıçdaroğlu will take action for a convention demand will become clear in the coming days.
Furthermore, while groups led by deputies continue their meetings with delegates, Kılıçdaroğlu and Ekrem İmamoğlu are also expected to come together in the coming days. The intra-party opposition, which believes that results cannot be achieved at a convention without İmamoğlu's support, is also waiting for İmamoğlu's stance to become clear.
