Özlem Çerçioğlu clarifies claims of running for office from İzmir: We will continue to serve

A claim regarding Özlem Çerçioğlu, who resigned from the CHP and joined the AKP, has become one of the most discussed topics on the political agenda. The claim that Özlem Çerçioğlu would be nominated as a candidate from İzmir in the next elections hit political circles like a bombshell.

Journalist Sinan Burhan clarified the İzmir claims regarding Çerçioğlu with a statement he made on tv100.

Stating that Çerçioğlu described these claims as baseless, Burhan noted that Çerçioğlu said, "I have no such agenda. We will continue to serve Aydın."

"SERIOUS DISINFORMATION IS BEING DIRECTED AT ÇERÇİOĞLU"

Burhan said the following regarding the matter:

With Özlem Çerçioğlu's move to the AKP, the status quo within the CHP has been shaken. Serious manipulations and disinformation campaigns have begun to be directed at Çerçioğlu.

In particular, there were some claims that Çerçioğlu joined the AK Party after receiving a promise for İzmir. This is disinformation. Çerçioğlu is a name who has just joined the AK Party. There are 4 years until the elections. Many things can happen in politics until the elections. Despite this, it is considered a manipulative news story with the logic of 'can we create some internal debates'.

ÇERÇİOĞLU: THE CLAIMS ARE COMPLETELY FALSE AND SPECULATION

I also asked Ms. Özlem. I said there are those in both the government and the opposition who are curious about this issue. She said, 'These claims are completely false and speculation. I have no such agenda. We will continue to serve Aydın.'
