The distinct differences in the political styles and approaches of former Presidents Abdullah Gül and Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, who were part of the same party and political movement for many years, occasionally caused tensions within this partnership.
In later years, although Gül's candidacy against Erdoğan was brought to the agenda, Gül backed down at the last minute.
According to Gazete Duvar, comments were made describing Gül's political style as "more conciliatory," "diplomatic," and a "calm" statesman. Erdoğan, on the other hand, was characterized as a bolder, more assertive, and even harsher and uncompromising politician when it came to achieving his goals.
Evaluations regarding these two politicians have once again come to the fore today with the presidential candidacy debates within the CHP. In Ankara's political circles, comments are being made comparing the differences between potential CHP presidential candidates Ekrem İmamoğlu and Mansur Yavaş to the Abdullah Gül-Recep Tayyip Erdoğan dynamic, noting similarities between the two pairs.
