The CHP Parliamentary Group is experiencing a turbulent day due to the "podium" rivalry between Özgür Özel and Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu. While Özgür Özel described the developments as a "pirate meeting" and reacted with the words "We cannot hand over the Parliament to appointees," the Kılıçdaroğlu side is not backing down.
The Presidency of the TBMM has increased precautions to prevent any possible tension under the Parliament roof. The question of "Who will speak at the group meeting?" within the CHP sparked intense backstage activity in Parliament from early morning.
After it was announced that Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu would address the Parliament, the current Chairman Özgür Özel also declared he would hold his own group meeting. MP Hüseyin Yıldız, known for his closeness to Kılıçdaroğlu, met with the CHP Parliamentary Group Chief to coordinate the guests attending the hall.
It was learned that the Kılıçdaroğlu faction transported many supporters from various Anatolian provinces to Ankara by bus for this critical meeting; meanwhile, Chairman Özgür Özel aimed to strengthen his presence in Parliament by inviting former MPs. The Kılıçdaroğlu side maintains its assertive stance, continuing to argue that "If the CHP Chairman wants, he will speak."
"EVEN IF KILIÇDAROĞLU SPEAKS, TBMM TV WILL NOT BROADCAST" In this extraordinary situation, TBMM Presidency sources, the focus of attention, stated that if Kılıçdaroğlu comes to Parliament, he will be courteously accompanied to the hall.
However, Parliamentary sources clearly stated that since there is no legal call made by the official group management, it is not possible to broadcast any potential speech by Kılıçdaroğlu live on TBMM TV.
Highlighting the risk of the two leaders potentially facing each other in the hall at the same time, the Parliament administration warned, "We cannot allow any images of fights under the Parliament roof." The CHP executives gathered under Özgür Özel emphasized that MPs must remain loyal to the current group management.
Party officials, stating that the internal regulations will be fully enforced, sent the message: "Everyone must comply with the rules. We will not prevent any citizen who wants to attend the group meeting as a listener, but everyone must show the necessary sensitivity to ensure the meeting proceeds peacefully."
