Yılmaz Özdil: Bahçeli has been managing Turkish politics for 27 years like a cat playing with a mouse

MHP Chairman Devlet Bahçeli, who determines the political agenda in the country with his statements, had drawn attention once again by saying he would make an important announcement at his party's group meeting.

In his speech, Bahçeli emphasized that imprisoned Selahattin Demirtaş should be released, while also stating that the People's Alliance is progressing without any issues, thereby indicating that the alleged crisis over the elections in Cyprus was not true.

Evaluating Bahçeli's statements on his program on Sözcütv, Yılmaz Özdil used striking expressions regarding Bahçeli and made a 'cat and mouse' comparison.

Stating that Devlet Bahçeli has been managing Turkish politics for 27 years like a cat playing with a mouse, Özdil used the following expressions to support his claim:

Apo is captured, Devlet Bahçeli is there... The death penalty for Apo is abolished, Devlet Bahçeli is there... The right to hope is granted to Apo, Devlet Bahçeli is there again... The government is about to fall, Bahçeli arrives there, the AKP's probability of winning power is zero, Bahçeli steps in... Bahçeli has been keeping these governments standing for 27 years.
