CHP Chairman Özgür Özel explained the reason why Minister of Culture and Tourism Mehmet Nuri Ersoy did not resign following the fire in Bolu during his group meeting today. Özel stated that Minister Ersoy, referring to the fact that Health Minister Kemal Memişoğlu did not resign after the Newborn Gang scandal that emerged in recent months, made a statement saying, "Did he make the Health Minister resign so that he would make me?"
Özel brought this expression to the agenda by saying, "I am quoting him directly." Özel implied that these words of Ersoy reflect the reasoning behind his decision not to resign, and that the Minister did not see a necessity to resign in a similar situation, influenced by the scandal in the health sector.
