Following the resignation of Gaziantep Deputy Ertuğrul Kaya from the DEVA Party, which caused the Yeni Yol group to fall below the number of deputies required to maintain a parliamentary group in the TBMM, new formulas have emerged to protect the group's status.
According to a report by Türkiye Gazetesi, it is stated that the prominent option in the corridors is for a deputy from the CHP to join Yeni Yol. Previously, after the resignation of Mustafa Bilici, the group's status in Parliament was preserved when CHP Kütahya Deputy Ali Fazıl Kasap joined Yeni Yol.
"KILIÇDAROĞLU ALWAYS BELIEVES IN PLURALISM"
CHP officials state that potential support is important for the representation of different political tendencies in Parliament and for the continuation of pluralism. In the assessment of the officials, the following remarks were made: "This is a great step for democracy. Our Chairman Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu always believes in pluralism. We will do whatever is necessary for the Parliament to be more inclusive."
For Yeni Yol to maintain its group existence, not only the CHP option but also the potential transition of some names from the New Welfare Party (Yeniden Refah Partisi) is being discussed. In this context, it is being evaluated that either Mehmet Aşıla or Doğan Bekin could join Yeni Yol.
