The AKP's 33rd Consultation and Evaluation Meeting was held this year between June 26-28 in the Sapanca district of Sakarya. During the party camp, the song titled "Great Leader Erdoğan," prepared for the AKP's 25th anniversary, was played for the participants for the first time.
It was observed that many party members in the hall accompanied the song, which contains expressions of praise for AKP Chairman and President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, with applause.
However, the fact that some former and founding members in the front rows did not join in this enthusiasm caught the attention of the cameras. In the footage, the moments when Bülent Arınç, Binali Yıldırım, Cemil Çiçek, İsmet Yılmaz, and İsmail Kahraman did not accompany the song were notable.
The fact that the AKP moved its camp, which it has held for many years in the Kızılcahamam district of Ankara, to Sapanca this year was also one of the prominent topics of the meeting. Erdoğan was expected to hold contacts with deputies and ministers at the camp.
On the other hand, the position of Bülent Arınç, who has recently come to the fore with his critical remarks toward the party, was also one of the topics followed in the corridors. It was alleged that some party members chose not to greet Arınç at the event.
