CHP Spokesperson Müslim Sarı stated, "You need to talk to the friend who sent the flowers. I just saw it myself. It is not a symbol or political communication. We do not evaluate it that way."

Keçiören Mayor Mesut Özarslan, who left the CHP in February and has recently been in the spotlight due to claims that he would join the AKP, has made a notable move.
Özarslan sent individual congratulatory flowers to all 19 members of the Central Executive Board (MYK) appointed by Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, who was brought to the CHP chairmanship by a court decision.
This step, which caused various assessments in political circles, led to interpretations that Özarslan has not completely severed his ties with the CHP.
CHP Spokesperson Müslim Sarı, who made a statement on the matter, indicated that sending the flowers did not carry a political meaning. Sarı said, "You need to talk to the friend who sent the flowers. I just saw it myself. It is not a symbol or political communication. We do not evaluate it that way."
