MHP Chairman Devlet Bahçeli's statement regarding the fire tragedy in Bolu, in which 78 citizens lost their lives, saying, "I feel compelled to state that I do not find it right for the relevant ministry to act as if nothing happened and refrain from self-criticism," has also stirred up the AKP corridors.
"IF OUR COLLEAGUE HAS A SHARE IN THIS, WE WILL DO WHAT IS NECESSARY"
According to a report by Cumhuriyet, it has been learned that whether or not Minister of Culture and Tourism Mehmet Nuri Ersoy will be dismissed has become a subject of debate within the AKP. Party insiders claimed that AKP Chairman and President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said, "If one of our colleagues has a share in this tragedy, we will do what is necessary."
ERSOY MAY BE DISMISSED BEFORE THE CONGRESS
Pointing out that Erdoğan is expected to make major changes to the cabinet at the AKP congress planned for February 23, party sources emphasized that Ersoy could be dismissed even before the congress.
IT IS CONSIDERED CERTAIN THAT 2 MORE MINISTERS WILL BE REPLACED
Stating that the last local elections were a warning sign from the voters, party insiders also indicate that there will be a cabinet revision to address the grassroots' dissatisfaction. It is stated that Minister of Health Kemal Memişoğlu could be dismissed due to the newborn gang scandal and his failure to resolve the appointment crisis. Furthermore, it is considered certain that Minister of Energy and Natural Resources Alpaslan Bayraktar will be dismissed due to being "passive" in his work.
