Critical Erdoğan-Bahçeli meeting begins: Will 50+1 be discussed?
While President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan signaled upon his return from Germany that the 50+1 requirement could be abandoned, MHP Chairman Devlet Bahçeli had defended the system. The two met for the first time since the incident.
President and AKP Chairman Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has received MHP Chairman Devlet Bahçeli. It is a matter of curiosity whether the 50+1 issue will be brought to the agenda during the closed-door meeting.
WHAT HAPPENED?
In his statement to journalists upon returning from his visit to Germany, Erdoğan had expressed that he was in favor of changing the 50+1 requirement needed to be elected President.
MHP leader Devlet Bahçeli responded by saying, "The democratic legitimacy of this system is 50+1," adding, "As the MHP, we hold the same view today as we did yesterday."
Although it was claimed that today's meeting between the two had been canceled, the meeting did take place.
