Active days are expected in the Grand National Assembly of Turkey (TBMM) next week.

Tv100 presenter Cansu Canan Özgen claimed that 7 members of parliament from the IYI Party and the Future Party will join the AKP.

In her behind-the-scenes report, Özgen alleged that Meral Akşener had an influence on the decisions of the IYI Party members.

"It looks like we will see a wave of MP transfers next week," said Özgen, continuing her remarks:

"There is information that MPs who have resigned from the IYI Party, in particular, will move to the AK Party. It is currently being said that the name of Ahmet Ersagun Yücel is being strongly mentioned and discussed.

He is currently an IYI Party Istanbul MP. Meanwhile, it is being discussed that former IYI Party leader Akşener has had an influence on the IYI Party MPs' decision to resign.

Özgen stated that the negotiations conducted with the party were effective for the MPs moving to the AK Party.
