İYİ Party emphasizes the reconstruction of the 'center-right'

İYİ Party leader Müsavat Dervişoğlu spoke at his party's group meeting. In his statement, Dervişoğlu said, "Standing in the center is a necessity for our country. In the past, the values represented by center politics enabled our nation to progress with unity and solidarity. The reconstruction of the center is possible by making what is reasonable acceptable once again."

İYİ Party Chairman Müsavat Dervişoğlu made statements at his party's group meeting. Here are the highlights from Dervişoğlu's remarks:

"When we look at our political history, regardless of the name you give it, the center-right and nationalist-right understanding governed our country with the common values of our nation. However, during the Justice and Development Party (AKP) era, center politics were pushed aside. By sidelining center politics, they built their own power on polarization. They constantly polarized society and said 'us and them.' The emptying of the center alienated society from one another. Standing in the center means rebuilding social peace. Our call is a call to return to the common sense that the Justice and Development Party has destroyed. Standing in the center is a necessity for our country.

"THIS CALL WILL ALSO FLOURISH TURKEY'S FUTURE"

In the past, the values represented by center politics enabled our nation to progress with unity and solidarity. Our duty is to create a solid foundation. The reconstruction of the center is possible by making what is reasonable acceptable once again. My call is a call to build a new Turkey by acting together. This call for unity will also flourish Turkey's future.

The approach of polarizing politics that divides society into pieces must now come to an end. Enough is enough; you are trying to darken the future of this country by segregating people and sowing seeds of malice and hatred. We have no patience left for those who disturb our peace. We will stand with those who try to unite this country, not those who want to tear it apart."
