Zeydan Karalar's 'absolute nullity and separation' indecision continues: I am fighting for the CHP

Journalist Rıza Zelyut had criticized Zeydan Karalar for taking a stance alongside the absolute nullity administration and had used striking expressions regarding Karalar.

Rıza Zelyut on Adana Mayor Zeydan Karalar:

"The people of Adana will understand sooner or later:

The Palace administration; broke down the doors and seated Kılıçdaroğlu at the head of the CHP.

Adana Mayor Zeydan Karalar is now by his side.

Mr. Zeydan is clearly the Aziz İhsan Aktaş of the CHP.

His release 7 months after being arrested last year was for this project.

The people of Adana will implement their own project against this Palace project when the time comes." he had stated.

Reacting to these words by Zelyut, Zeydan Karalar had requested that the statement in question be removed.

Following these developments, Rıza Zelyut made a new post on his social media account and used the following expressions:

"Adana Mayor Zeydan Karalar called.

He said he was very saddened by my post about him.

'I am not on anyone's side; I am on the side of the CHP,' he said.

After reminding Mr. Karalar that Turkey is being dragged into the Middle Ages by the AKP administration and that democracy is in danger:

'Mr. Mayor; what do you say about the operations carried out against the CHP?' I asked.

His answer:

'Is it possible to accept it?'

'What do you think about the nullity administration?' I asked. He did not give much away on this subject and said:

'I am working with all my might for the party to go to a convention. I have been fighting for the CHP for 55 years.'

And he reiterated his grievance by saying, 'As someone who reads your books, these criticisms hurt me; I did not deserve them!'

And he asked me to remove the post if possible.

I told Mr. Karalar that I could not do this, but that I would publish a summary of what he said out of respect for his right of reply.

'As you wish!' he said.

I thank him for his courtesy, but the people of Adana will make the decision."
