Özgür Özel setting new road map after losing chairmanship
Özgür Özel and his close aides have begun working to craft a new road map after a court has removed him from the chairmanship of the main opposition Republican People’s Party (CHP) and reinstated former leader Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu.
Özel held meetings on May 25 with the heads of the CHP’s provincial branches and mayors at the parliament in a bid to strategize the next steps they will take in the coming period.
The move came after Özel and his supporters had to evacuate the CHP’s headquarters after the police intervention on May 24 in line with Kılıçdaroğlu’s appeal to the office of the Ankara governor.
Since then, Özel chose his office at the parliament as his new place of work.
