Ankara mayor leaves CHP in opposition split
Ankara Mayor Mansur Yavaş announced his resignation from the Republican People's Party, affirming that he will continue to perform his duties as an independent alcalde. This came amid internal disputes within the party and political tensions with its leadership, with Yavaş refusing to blame voters or transfer his political powers to other entities. Following his resignation, the heads of three party-affiliated municipalities also resigned from the same party, while emphasizing their continued cooperation with him. The party is currently facing widespread criticism from its leadership and is awaiting evaluation meetings to assess the situation. Yavaş, who recently met with President Erdoğan amidst the tensions between the two parties, is a longstanding political figure. He previously ran for mayor of Ankara in 2014 and won the office in 2019 and 2024, maintaining his neutrality in internal disagreements.
