Striking Istanbul claim regarding Süleyman Soylu! 'He has started working...'

While there is great curiosity about which name the AKP will nominate for the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality in the local elections on March 31, 2024, journalist Orhan Uğuroğlu shared insider information on the subject.

It has emerged that AKP Istanbul MP Süleyman Soylu, who had remained silent after handing over the Ministry of Interior to Ali Yerlikaya, has started working for an IMM candidacy.

"HE IS TRYING TO ESTABLISH A LINE WITH PEOPLE AROUND ERDOĞAN"

Speaking on a program he attended on Halk TV, Uğuroğlu said, "Süleyman Soylu will be a candidate for the AK Party's Istanbul Mayor nomination. That is why he suddenly appeared. You know how they were saying 'a surprise name for Istanbul'... Now it is said that this is Süleyman Soylu's goal, and that he is in communication with people close to the headquarters and the palace for this. According to the insider information I received, Süleyman Soylu is a candidate and is working accordingly. He is trying to establish a line with Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and the people around him."

Stating that he spoke with a former AKP minister, Uğuroğlu conveyed the former minister's comments as follows: 

"'This plan is two-staged,' he explained. Süleyman Soylu may also have the thought of regaining his lost reputation and first winning Istanbul, and then taking a step to replace Erdoğan."
