MHP leader Devlet Bahçeli spoke at his party's group meeting at the parliamentary podium.

Bahçeli criticized CHP leader Özgür Özel and Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu.

A detail in Bahçeli's speech became a trending topic on social media.

Bahçeli stated the following:

"THE PEOPLE OF TURKEY"

"My dear fellow members of parliament, my valuable colleagues. Those who increase provocations in the Grand National Assembly of Turkey, who cast a shadow over the Assembly, who try to pursue different agendas in the Assembly, and who are involved in all kinds of efforts should be careful, but you must be more careful than all of them. You will be patient, you will postpone your anger. You will be the owners of your nation. You will also be the owners of the people of Turkey, and you will govern in the future. That is my advice for that reason."
