Erdoğan's 2028 plan revealed: 'To run again...'

Gazete Pencere columnist Nuray Babacan shared information she obtained from AKP inner circles in her article titled "There are no cooks left in the AKP! The plan: Not an early election, but an election brought forward."

"Whether the inertia in the ruling party and the politics disconnected from society will end is the most discussed topic in the corridors," shared Nuray Babacan, adding, "The assessment that 'While everyone in the party is trying to be in the spotlight, there is no one left in the kitchen cooking the meal, chopping the onions and potatoes. It has been forgotten that the kitchen is what matters' is striking. According to party members, it is not an early election, but an election brought forward that is being planned," she stated.

"THERE IS NO OTHER POSSIBILITY..."

"Party members are not in a hurry regarding an early election," continued Babacan, sharing the inside scoop: "It is claimed that the President has no election plans until 2028, and that an election brought forward by a few months is being planned in order to run again. According to AKP members, there is no other possibility than an 'election brought forward.' They comment, 'Because none of the reasons that caused us to lose the election have disappeared. Although the economy is a large part of this, it is not the only reason; an election cannot be held without resolving the problems caused by wrong policies.'"

"A VERY BROAD-BASED CHANGE IS EXPECTED FROM DISTRICT ADMINISTRATIONS TO PROVINCIAL ADMINISTRATIONS..."

Reminding that the AKP administration held meetings throughout the summer due to the congress process and stating that the problems experienced by the party and the field observations of the deputies were listened to, Nuray Babacan conveyed the information she obtained from the corridors regarding the findings as follows:

In recent years, the process regarding renewal and creating new human resources has unfortunately not been managed well. While everyone is trying to be in the spotlight, there is no one left in the kitchen cooking the meal, chopping the onions and potatoes. It has been forgotten that the kitchen is what matters. When projects that would give hope to society were not produced, reflexes slowed down, and inertia occurred. The diseases could not be diagnosed correctly.

Voters everywhere are saying, "The sense of justice has been damaged, fix this." This is the most important heading along with the economy. We must take urgent steps on this issue. The base is telling us, "Change your actors, make the changes you promised after the elections." We can only bring back the voters who have distanced themselves from us, gone to another party, or are undecided through change.

There is a positive movement in the party's situation compared to 6 months ago. This should be evaluated well. The anger towards us is decreasing. Turkey is surrounded by a ring of fire, and the citizens see this. A recovery, albeit slow, has begun in the economy. The citizen is at the point of, "If you fix the economy, I am considering returning to you..."

Party members are not in a hurry regarding an early election. It is claimed that the President has no election plans until 2028, and that an election brought forward by a few months is being planned in order to run again. According to AKP members, there is no other possibility than an "election brought forward." They comment, "Because none of the reasons that caused us to lose the election have disappeared. Although the economy is a large part of this, it is not the only reason; an election cannot be held without resolving the problems caused by wrong policies."

There are also assessments that the inexperienced names surrounding the President aim to liquidate experienced cadres. Among these, the comments of those who say, "This cadre, all of whom are relatives of someone, is implementing a wrong strategy. For the first time in its history, conservative voters voted for the CHP. The base is dissolving. A historic break has occurred. I don't think they can read this," are interesting.

Changes made through appointments before the congress continue to draw reactions. The fact that competition is not allowed at the base is being criticized. Party officials, on the other hand, are voicing the claim that a very broad-based change will be made from district administrations to provincial administrations. As a result of this, it is argued that radical changes will be made in both the MKYK and the MYK, which is the party's showcase. The cabinet will also get its share of this change. Names have already started to be discussed.
