Pro-government media changes its tone: Yeni Akit's 'affection' for Kılıçdaroğlu continues

The legal process regarding the CHP's 38th Ordinary Congress continues to be one of the hottest topics on the political agenda. Ahead of the hearing to be held on June 30, the validity of the CHP congress is being questioned in a lawsuit filed on the grounds of "absolute nullity" following objections made by former delegates and Hatay Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Lütfü Savaş.

While CHP Chairman Özgür Özel and the party leadership describe this lawsuit as an "effort to make the party controversial," the statements made by former Chairman Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu regarding the legal process are drawing attention.

Kılıçdaroğlu's remarks, such as "I cannot say that I do not recognize judicial decisions," have led to interpretations that his position in the congress process has changed.

SUPPORT FOR KILIÇDAROĞLU FROM PRO-GOVERNMENT MEDIA

The newspaper Yeni Akit, known for its pro-government publications, has featured Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu on its front pages repeatedly in recent days. In today's issue, the newspaper ran the headline "They are not afraid of the trustee, but of Mr. Kemal," and has begun publishing news in a tone that remarkably supports Kılıçdaroğlu.

The newspaper and similar outlets, which previously directed harsh criticism at Kılıçdaroğlu, are now publishing laudatory comments about him, raising the question of "why now?" in political circles.

THE TROLLS HAVE ALSO CHANGED THEIR TUNE
