Sinan Oğan targets Özgür Özel: 'The owner of the place is back'

Sinan Oğan, who entered the 2023 Presidential elections as the candidate of the ATA Alliance and supported AKP Chairman and President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan in the second round of the election, spoke in Yalova and Kocaeli as part of the opening of the Turkey Alliance Party provincial branches.

Stating that he is in a serious preparation process for the 2028 Presidential elections, Oğan targeted CHP Chairman Özgür Özel.

"ÖZEL, LET'S TAKE YOU OFF THE STAGE"

Reacting to CHP leader Özel's use of the name 'Turkey Alliance', Oğan said, "The owner of the place is back now, Özel, let's take you off the stage."

Oğan continued his remarks as follows:

"We have come to change the generation of politics in Turkey. Our name is the Turkey Alliance Party. This name is the name found by the members of the Turkey Alliance Party and the Turkish Nation, but recently, especially Republican People's Party Chairman Özgür Özel has been using our party's name because they see it. It would not have occurred to me that the Chairman of the great CHP would use our party's name, but it happened. I would like to ask Özel, what happened to your Nation Alliance? We will not allow anyone to commit intellectual property theft.

1 year has passed since the elections. We waited, we waited despite the slanders thrown at us. We waited for our people to give us their due. Our nation has seen why we made such a decision. In the 2023 General Elections, our base wanted us to support the People's Alliance. A part of our base wanted us to remain neutral, and another part wanted us to support the Nation Alliance candidate."
