CHP leader Özgür Özel spoke at his party's group meeting.

Highlights from Özel's statement are as follows:

MUSTAFA BIYIK JOINED CHP

Özgür Özel introduced Mustafa Bıyık, who joined the CHP from the İYİ Party, at the group meeting.

Highlights from Özgür Özel's statements are as follows:

TOUCHED UPON THE TRAGEDY IN IZMIR

''We received news of a major tragedy from İzmir. It breaks one's heart as you learn more. A 22-year-old woman is married early. Melis Akcan, the daughter of a retired philosophy teacher. Her husband goes to prison, and this time she starts collecting scrap; there are 5 children, the oldest being 5 years old, and they are faced with a great disaster.''

''Our nation weighs the sincerity of those who become Atatürkists when it suits them, those who rush to the funeral of a madman, and those who call him 'two drunks' when they are cornered, only to say 'I wish he had lived 10 more years' when they are in a tight spot, on the scales of justice. But the nation's loyalty to Atatürk never ends.''

MINIMUM WAGE OUTBURST

The minimum wage demand should be 30,000 TL. If there is no 30 thousand, we will start this struggle. We will continue to object. Otherwise, we will make this country too small for you.

'WE ARE BREATHING DOWN THEIR NECKS'

They are opening new mines in the Kaz Mountains. That is why the eyes of 80-year-old women are tearful. We will be breathing down the necks of those who make our mothers shed tears.

INFLUENCE AGENT LAW

They are now trying to introduce the 'influence agent' regulation by adding it to the Turkish Penal Code (TCK). They want to bring it in to use as a stick against dissidents. If there is someone who is a dissident to me, I will evaluate them as an influence agent for others and throw them in jail. They will tell students, they will tell the opposition's youth branches, and they will try to suppress the opposition. The patent for this influence agent law does not belong to Mr. Tayyip, but to Mr. Putin. Red alert, friends. All our deputies will do whatever they can to prevent this law from passing.

TEACHERS WAITING FOR APPOINTMENT

In 2002, 68 thousand teachers had not been appointed. Mr. Tayyip came and called the late Ecevit 'conscienceless.' He said, 'When I come to power, I will appoint them all.' He left the country facing 1 million unappointed teachers, the same person who held the late Ecevit accountable. You promised to appoint them, but you didn't. These teachers are facing the biggest 'snatch-and-grab' incident in history. Their diplomas are being stolen.

DETENTION OF SERDAR ORTAÇ

They went to the house of one of our artists, Serdar Ortaç, at night, knocked on the door, and when he didn't open it, they waited; they waited for him to wake up, that is the correct way. They broke down Ahmet Özer's door. They dragged him out of his bed as if he were a suicide bomber. They did not let his lawyer in at the door of the municipality. They presumably found the evidence they planted themselves.

CHP leader Özgür Özel also said regarding Prosecutor Akın Gürlek, "He has a lot to answer for to me," and listed the cases he has conducted.

Özel listed the cases as follows:

Enis Berberoğlu Case

Canan Kaftancıoğlu Case

Sözcü Newspaper Case

Hrant Dink Case

Sırrı Süreyya Önder Case

TTB (Turkish Medical Association) Case

Progressive Lawyers Association Case

Grup Yorum Case
