First decision from Kızılcahamam: Erdoğan's '30 metropolitan cities' move

The highly anticipated AKP Kızılcahamam Camp has begun following the March 31 local elections.

According to a report by Emrah Özcan from Türkiye newspaper, President and AKP Chairman Recep Tayyip Erdoğan will participate in "Turkey Meetings" in 30 metropolitan cities. 

Additionally, a decision was made within the AKP to establish an E-organization model to ensure the party acts in unison. 

CRISIS OF RESPONSIBILITY

Furthermore, some members of parliament expressed concerns regarding issues such as changes in the demographic structure and the social transformation taking place in the country, noting the need to address shortcomings in representation in these two areas. 

While some deputies stated, “We are paying the price for problems that do not belong to us,” party founders and former deputies said, “It cannot be done just by giving presentations with statistical data. We must talk about what the problem is. No one wants to take responsibility.”

TARGETING YOUNG VOTERS

The AKP will also seek ways to increase the number of members in its organization during this period. New steps will be taken to win back voters who chose other parties in the March 31 and May 14-28 elections. Since the number of young voters, who made up 52.44% in the 2023 elections, will rise to 65% in the 2028 elections, organization efforts focused on youth will continue at full speed. A special team will be established for young people, especially for university students. The team will invite individuals who stand out in social media and social dynamics to the party. At the same time, new names will be identified through neighborhood-based programs and ensured to participate in the process. 

NATIONAL EDUCATION ACADEMY

Additionally, a National Education Academy will be established, and those who do not graduate from it will not be able to become teachers. 

The ban on sugary foods in school cafeterias will be implemented by 2025.
