AI-generated summary

Why It Matters

Font size

NEW Party Chairman Özgür Özel visited Halk TV, which was appointed trustee today.

Özel said the following in his speech at the channel building:

"This needs to be told to the whole world. European Socialists published a declaration. We will all do our best to make this visible. At the same time, we will talk and discuss what to do.

Everyone gets their authority from the constitution. They do not allow watching the most watched news channel in a country like Türkiye in 2026. Whatever their issue with Cafer Bey is, it has nothing to do with HalkTV. This place should continue its broadcasts.

The real issue is that what is being seized is HalkTV's broadcasting approach.

From here, we declare to the whole Türkiye and the world that the issue is to silence Halk TV. If you stop it, who will advertise here, you will ruin this place too.

Nobody should deceive anyone. "The aim is to silence Türkiye's most watched channel."
