Kılıçdaroğlu: We are initiating the party congress process

While the political agenda has turned toward the CHP's parliamentary group meeting to be held on Tuesday, a notable statement came from Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu.

Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, who became the Chairman of the CHP again following the court's absolute nullity decision, announced in a statement that the party congress process would be initiated.

Kılıçdaroğlu used the following expressions:

"We are a giant family that grows by enriching itself with our different ideas and unites around the same goal.

We are not rivals to each other; we are the children of the Republican People's Party walking shoulder to shoulder.

Our goal is clear: to establish justice and democracy in the second century of our Republic and to realize our nation's goal of contemporary civilization.

We are initiating our party congress process with the first Party Assembly meeting we will hold on Thursday, June 11. I invite our entire organization to be of one heart at our group meeting tomorrow, and to unite with common sense and the bond of comradeship."

We are a giant family that grows by enriching itself with our different ideas and unites around the same goal.

We are not rivals to each other; we are the children of the Republican People's Party walking shoulder to shoulder.

Our goal is clear: to establish justice and democracy in the second century of our Republic…
