Discomfort about not disclosing names in the fund investigation is also expressed in the MHP lobbies.
In the editorial titled "The fate of the fund grab is being followed" by Türkgün newspaper, known for its closeness to MHP, it was requested that those responsible be announced regardless of their political identities and positions, and it was emphasized that the uncertainty left the People's Alliance under suspicion.
Considering the article as a "direct warning to the government", MHP sources stated that the rumors also targeted members of their own party and wanted the crisis to be resolved before it escalated further.
In the article, it was argued that not publishing the full list of the investigation both damaged the reputation of people who were not involved in the matter and caused the real responsible people to remain secret.
Citing the allegations made against AKP and MHP politicians as examples, it was stated that the discourses accusing the People's Alliance will continue unless the names are officially announced.
'THOSE RESPONSIBLE SHOULD BE REVEALED'
In the article, a call was made to eliminate the uncertainty in the investigation and to show the public with concrete steps that no one was protected.
On the same day that Türkgün expressed his demand for the disclosure of those responsible, emphasizing "purification", MHP Chairman Devlet Bahçeli repeated his call for purification and acquittal in politics at his party's GNAT group meeting.
Bahçeli, who did not directly address the fund investigation, said, "It is time to leave behind corruption, pollution and all the burdens of politics."
Bahçeli said, "On this occasion, I would like to emphasize once again that purification and vindication in politics is an irreversible necessity."
MHP sources speaking to Cumhuriyet stated that the message of the article in Türkgün to the government is to shed light on all aspects of the investigation and reveal those responsible.
UNCERTAINTY FEEDS NEW CLAIMS
Stating that as the uncertainty continues, different names remain under suspicion and some names within the MHP are the target of rumors, MHP members said that the same demand for clarity was also expressed within the AKP.
MHP sources emphasized that all aspects of the crisis should be clarified and those responsible should be announced.
Sources pointed out that the ongoing uncertainty put different names under suspicion and stated that the names within the MHP were also affected by this situation.
Evaluating the political message of the article in Türkgün, MHP sources argued that the government's failure to disclose those responsible escalated the discussions.
Sources stated that new allegations are made unless the names and connections are clarified, and pointed out that this makes it difficult to clarify the investigation and causes people who are not related to the issue to come under suspicion.
Sources stated that different names were pointing at each other in the AKP backstage and expressed their discomfort with the prolonged uncertainty.
Sources stated that names from MHP became the target of rumors and emphasized that those responsible should be revealed concretely and those who committed crimes should be punished so that no one is accused.
'THERE IS THE SAME DEMAND WITHIN AKP'
MHP sources also said that the demand for clarification of the issue is not limited to their own party.
Sources stated that there are demands within the AKP for the funding crisis to be resolved, the allegations to be clarified and those responsible to be disclosed, and that this expectation was also expressed by AKP members.
According to the evaluation of the sources, the outburst in Türkgün also coincides with the discomfort and expectation of openness within the ruling party.
Pointing out that the prolongation of the crisis has increased the rumors, the sources noted that the separation of those who are responsible from those who are not will only be possible by clarifying the process.
ARRESTS ALONE ARE NOT SEEMED ENOUGH
Emphasizing that the arrests made within the scope of the investigation do not alone mean that the problem has been solved, MHP sources argued that steps should also be taken to solve the crisis.
Stating that the issue cannot be seen as a simple funding discussion, sources pointed out the danger of the allegations, which are growing day by day, turning into a wider crisis.
Sources warned that if the fund issue is not revealed in all its dimensions, it could have consequences that could deeply shake the country, and evaluated the article in Türkgün in this context.
Sources stated that the message given to the ruling partner of the People's Alliance was to eliminate the uncertainty, explain those responsible and resolve the crisis before it escalates further.
