Turkish MPs Aim to Form New Party
Ozgur Ozel and 91 defecting deputies have submitted a request to establish a new political party in Turkey, in a move aimed at opposing a judicial ruling that canceled the Republican People's Party Congress and deposed Ozel from its leadership. The new party is expected to become the second-largest in Parliament after the Justice and Development Party, despite a reduced opposition presence. The party aims to attract Republican People's Party voters, but the split could bolster Erdogan's chances of extending his 23-year rule.
