"NO SUCH TOPIC WAS DISCUSSED"

Responding to questions from journalists, İmamoğlu said, "It is natural for me to meet with Mr. İnce. A new generation of politics exists. No such topic was discussed. There could have been an exchange of information. The name of Izmir was not even mentioned."

Addressing Akşener's remarks, İmamoğlu stated, "I wonder if Meral Akşener is referring to me; I couldn't understand. I didn't hear about Istanbul. I didn't take it personally at all."

İmamoğlu also spoke about the issue of alliances in the local elections. İmamoğlu said, "The ground for an alliance can be formed before the local elections."
