Shocking claim from Dervişoğlu! Bahçeli's applause was pre-planned

İYİ Party Chairman Müsavat Dervişoğlu has made a striking statement regarding MHP Chairman Devlet Bahçeli's applause for DEM Party Co-Chairman Tuncer Bakırhan following his speech in Parliament. Dervişoğlu claimed that this applause was pre-planned and that journalists had been notified in advance.

DERVİŞOĞLU: "IT WAS KNOWN IN ADVANCE THAT BAHÇELİ WOULD APPLAUD"

Referring to discussions in the parliamentary lobbies, Dervişoğlu alleged that it was pre-organized that Bahçeli would applaud immediately after Bakırhan's speech. According to his claims, this move by Bahçeli was planned to attract public attention and send a political message.

Dervişoğlu said, "The fact that the cameras turned to Bahçeli as soon as Bakırhan finished his speech shows that this applause was designed in advance. Even journalists had been informed about this matter."

WHAT DOES BAHÇELİ'S APPLAUSE MEAN?

Devlet Bahçeli's prolonged applause for Bakırhan's speech has caused a wide stir in Parliament and among the public. It remains unclear whether the applause was directed at a specific point in Bakırhan's speech or intended to convey a general political message.

WHAT HAPPENED?

As the Grand National Assembly of Turkey (TBMM) General Assembly began deliberations on the 2025 Central Government Budget Law Proposal and the 2023 Central Government Final Account Law Proposal, DEM Party Co-Chairman Tuncer Bakırhan stated in his speech at the General Assembly, "We have stated that we find the discussions initiated by Mr. Bahçeli since October 1st to be positive and important. Regarding this, we said, 'Our hands are open for Turkey's peace.' We said, 'As the DEM Party, we are ready to fulfill our responsibility in this regard.'"
