Turkish opposition leader launches new movement
Turkish opposition leader Özgür Ozel departs from the Republican People’s Party, from which he was ousted as chairman, and establishes a new political movement joined by 91 deputies, making the new party the first force in the Turkish parliament. The Republican People’s Party, considered Turkey’s oldest party, had been facing a decline in its parliamentary representation, with only about 40 deputies remaining after Ozel’s removal and Kamal Kılıçdaroğlu’s appointment in his place in May. Ozel accused the government of attempting to facilitate the victory of the Justice and Development Party in the 2028 elections.
