New Party Chairman Özgür Özel briefly said the following in the Sözcü TV broadcast yesterday:
"(Why did he say 'yes' to the framework law?) It is said that 'If this law is passed, the terrorist organization will not only lay down its weapons here, but also in Syria, the YPG will join the Syrian army and end its existence. Its presence in Northern Iraq will end, the PKK and its extensions will lay down their arms, terrorism will end.' A party that aspires to rule the state cannot look at this only as 'The AK Party is currently in power, this is an AK Party game' after all this information and information. We looked at it from the right line and said. "We cannot let Turkey miss this possibility, because from now on there will be no more martyrs, the tears of mothers will never flow again... The YPG made the statement in Syria the other day. Am I going to oppose this? We received almost twice as many 'no' votes as the İYİ Party, but we still showed our principled stance, but we have expressed our concern. While achieving success, no one should scratch their nerve endings. I say this bilaterally, not unilaterally.
IF IT WAS A MELON, LET'S SMELL IT
(Municipal investigations) 411 mayoral candidates out of nearly 1000 are elected and strange things happen. If there is a way, a method, to detect this, if there is someone who knows it, if there is someone who was well known at that time and is later known to have a weakness regarding his private life or to make a mistake in money and money matters, let's do it. As the people of Kırkağaç say, "Smell the bottom like a melon", let's smell its head.
I HAVE TWO STRONG CANDIDATES
(Presidential candidacy) I don't want to put myself in that pot. I have two strong candidates. When a person gets carried away with enthusiasm about himself, the Chairman... He also gives gas to those around him. While the polls and headlines are saying, 'No, I am 40 percent, I am 41 percent, I am 42 percent'... Now they are showing me that 'He will beat Erdoğan 52 to 48 percent'... No brother, the one who won 60 percent to 40 percent, while the one who won 52 percent to 48 percent will sit down instead. He will sit. If you lose 60 to 40, you say 'I will win 51 to 49, 52 to 48', and then you lose like that. I have put myself in a position where I take responsibility when it is necessary to take responsibility, and make sacrifices when it is necessary to sacrifice, following the example that caused the country to lose with my enthusiasm and ambition in the past. I have no ambitions or intentions about myself.
'80 YEAR OLD MAN CAME...'
There were two handshakes this week, both of which were trending. One at the funeral of the late Cevdet Selvi and one at the opening of the judicial year. Now, first of all, not shaking hands at a funeral, and reflecting political tension on that funeral while Cevdet Selvi's wife and our sister are standing there crying next to me, is disrespectful to the funeral and the owners of the funeral. I went there about 10 minutes before the opening of the judicial year. Mr. Kemal also came, saw me as I was taking his place and came towards me. A person 30-35 years older than me extended his hand. And after all, Turkey's entire protocol for the opening of the judicial year is there.
WOW SIR DID HE SMILE?
There he is, his hand in the air. So I got up, here's a photo while I was getting up and getting myself together. After that, 'Wow, sir, did Özgür Özel smile?' I look to see if I smiled. I am not in the mood to smile at Kemal Bey like that. Otherwise, an 80-year-old man came, I stood up while sitting, extended his hand, and extended my hand. Not accepting a greeting or leaving one's hand in the air is not in my nature anyway. There is no room left for Mr. Kemal in my heart, the size of the head of a pin.
MANISA MEETING
