The YENİ Party Central Executive Board (MYK) met at the party headquarters under the chairmanship of Chairman Özgür Özel. One of the prominent agenda items of the meeting was the fund crisis in the stock market and the investigation conducted regarding this crisis.
The party leadership has formed a 10-member parliamentary delegation to follow the details of the investigation and to ensure that the incident is uncovered in all its dimensions. Party officials announced that the delegation will visit the individuals arrested within the scope of the investigation in prisons.
Stating that questions will be asked during the meetings in order to "reach the truth," officials commented, "Since the government is not doing the work of uncovering the incident in all its dimensions, we will make the effort." Party sources argued that despite requests for a parliamentary inquiry, the government does not want to deepen this process.
SURVEY AND ELECTION EVALUATION
In the MYK meeting, not only the fund crisis but also the Mecca Agreement, preparations for the First Ordinary Congress to be held on November 14-15, completed congress processes, the new organizational model, the 2027 budget, the work of the TBMM group, the current number of members, and the carrying of the absolute nullity decision against the CHP to the ECHR were also discussed.
It was stated that the committee formed with the participation of economic officials after the fund crisis continues its meetings, and that the party is also measuring the political effects of the crisis through surveys. Party officials claimed that as of September, YENİ Party has risen to the position of the leading party again.
According to the officials' assessment, there is a three-point difference between the AK Party and the YENİ Party after the undecided voters are distributed. In the same assessment, it was alleged that the fund crisis caused the AK Party to lose six points and that "one in every six families" was affected by the crisis.
Responding to a question about whether President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan's statements regarding retirees pointing to the end of the year are a sign of a possible snap election, party officials expressed the view that the government will not go to an early election while the fund crisis is on the agenda and the AK Party is lagging in the polls.
Party officials also reacted to the operations against the Bakırköy and Merkezefendi municipalities. Arguing that the operations aim to put pressure on opposition municipalities and the party organization, officials suggested that the pressure could increase until the election process.
In the statements, while pointing to the importance of keeping the organization and the party "vigorous and alive," it was alleged that YENİ Party is being targeted because it is the most serious alternative to the government. Officials expressed the view that the political landscape will change at the ballot box.
