Former CHP Chairman Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu shared striking messages in a video he posted, stating that the CHP is not an ordinary party and outlining the responsibilities that must be taken and the steps that must be followed.

Former Republican People's Party (CHP) Chairman Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu said, "The Republican People's Party cannot be associated with bribery, corruption, and the contractors of the bribery cycle. It cannot come together with them. It cannot move forward while under the shadow of slander and corruption allegations; it must cleanse itself immediately and continue on its path. The Republican People's Party must be a party that invites our noble nation to a moral awakening."

In the video he published on his social media account, Kılıçdaroğlu said:

"My devoted fellow travelers and comrades, and the patriotic children of this country. The Republican People's Party is the founding party of this country and is the very will to protect the state and the republic. The Republican People's Party is not an ordinary party. Our party has codes, a tradition, and two great missions. The first is to keep politics clean and to hold people accountable. To be able to hold others accountable, one must not shy away from being held accountable. Being held accountable is a debt of honor for every CHP member. Every political party and every politician can drift, can hold back, can get caught in a spiral of bribery and corruption, and can even get caught in a chain of betrayal. But look, I say this with a big 'but.' The Republican People's Party cannot be associated with bribery, corruption, and the contractors of the bribery cycle. It cannot come together with them. It cannot move forward while under the shadow of slander and corruption allegations; it must cleanse itself immediately and continue on its path. The Republican People's Party must be a party that invites our noble nation to a moral awakening," he said.

Stating that the Republican People's Party should be involved in the process of brotherhood, Kılıçdaroğlu said, "The Republican People's Party sets the direction for the state. The Republic of Turkey has something to say from the Middle East to Asia, from the Caucasus to Europe, from the Altai Mountains to the Danube. The Republic of Turkey cannot be confined to the geographies where it has ridden horses and given martyrs. It cannot be squeezed at the table of brotherly nations with which it has established bonds of affection, it cannot be confined.

The Republican People's Party must be involved in the process to eliminate the scourge of Israel and America, which are waiting for us to stumble in the Middle East, and for the supreme interests of the country.

It must take risks and put its hand under the stone by looking at the issue from a supra-political perspective. Our nation's expectation from the Republican People's Party is to be a pioneer in the process of brotherhood and to set the direction for the process. Being on the right side of history often requires courage and determination; we will continue our march for rights, law, and justice with our noble nation before history," he stated.
