Özgür Özel explains what he will do if Kılıçdaroğlu does not call for a party congress

The debate over a party congress, which began around Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu after he returned to the position of chairman following the absolute nullity ruling, continues within the CHP. While claims that Kılıçdaroğlu does not plan to hold an extraordinary congress in the near term and wishes to prepare the party for the election process under his own leadership remain on the political agenda, notable statements have come from CHP Chairman Özgür Özel.

CLAIM THAT KILIÇDAROĞLU “IS NOT CONSIDERING A CONGRESS”

In claims circulating in Ankara political circles, it has been suggested that Kılıçdaroğlu does not intend to hold an extraordinary congress with elections in the short term. TGRT Ankara Representative Fatih Atik stated on the matter, "A congress is not expected in the near future. Kılıçdaroğlu will lead the CHP into the elections. He will not be the presidential candidate himself."

ÖZEL’S “SOCIAL PRESSURE” MESSAGE

In response to the question, "What will be done if a congress is not announced?", CHP Chairman Özgür Özel said, "We will increase social pressure. We will use all the powers granted by the Law on Political Parties and the party charter. We will collect signatures and call the Party Assembly to an extraordinary meeting."

“OUR MAIN WORK IS ON THE STREETS” STATEMENT

Continuing his statement, Özel said, "The CHP administration is not a place to be held onto through hit-and-run tactics. Things do not work the way the Palace wants them to. We will be in the field during the holiday. From now on, if a roof is needed, that roof is the Parliament, but our main work is on the streets."
