Ali Babacan's 2023 remarks on CHP back in the spotlight: 'Are you dreaming?'

Remarks made by Democracy and Progress Party (DEVA) Chairman Ali Babacan during a program he attended in August 2023 regarding the CHP have become a topic of discussion following the clarification of local election results and the CHP becoming the leading party across Turkey.

In the program, Babacan argued that the CHP would not be able to achieve any success if it entered the local elections without an alliance, using the phrase, 'Are you dreaming?'

"THIS CAN ONLY BE ACHIEVED THROUGH ALLIANCES"

Ali Babacan's remarks, which have resurfaced following the local election results, are as follows: "I am asking those who are so vocal. Is it possible for the CHP to enter and win any election in Turkey on its own today?

Are you dreaming? Is this that kind of country? This can only be achieved through alliances.

They need to see this reality. Oh, the local elections are coming. Let's say we will run with our own candidate in Istanbul and Ankara and win."
