Whatever happens in Turkey, naturally also affects us deeply…<\/p>\n

While the pain caused by the destruction of the earthquakes is still fresh, another earthquake was experienced in politics and unavoidably it has occupied \u201cour agenda\u201d…<\/p>\n

The withdrawal of Meral Ak\u015fener [leader of Turkey\u2019s Good Party<\/em>] from the \u201cTable of Six\u201d [Translator\u2019s note: the coalition formed by six opposition parties ahead of Turkey\u2019s presidential election<\/em>] or as her party insistently defended, her being forced from the table; and then her return to the table is a very serious situation of political “instability” for everyone who wants Turkey’s “well-being”…<\/p>\n

The offensive and extremely accusatory \u201clanguage\u201d used by Meral Ak\u015fener leaving the table shows us the never-ending \u201ctension\u201d of the stressful political environment in Turkey\u2026<\/p>\n

Particularly, Ak\u015fener’s attempts to lure two mayors from the party to the [playing<\/em>] field, which can be described as “interference in the internal affairs” of CHP [Republican People\u2019s Party<\/em>], is not a move that can be welcomed. Surely, Meral Ak\u015fener also has “justified” arguments…<\/p>\n

The failure of this table to determine a \u2018Presidential candidate\u2019 to run against Erdo\u011fan until the elections is a serious political \u201cweakness\u201d of both Ak\u015fener and the other stakeholders.<\/p>\n

However, the \u201cpurging of the playing field\u201d by CHP Leader [Kemal<\/em>] K\u0131l\u0131\u00e7daro\u011flu while eliminating \u201cintra-party\u201d reactions regarding his candidacy should be noteworthy for every politician.<\/p>\n

Meral Ak\u015fener\u2019s insistence on a \u201ccandidate who can win\u201d and her demand for a \u201cpublic opinion poll\u201d on the candidates has been known for months.<\/p>\n

Were these demands unreasonable? If there are no ulterior motives behind these requests, then these were \u201cnorms\u201d which needed to be considered.<\/p>\n

However, K\u0131l\u0131\u00e7daro\u011flu rejected both of Ak\u015fener\u2019s proposals at the last meeting. From the very beginning, it should have been the opposition\u2019s common \u201cgoal\u201d to nominate a \u201ccandidate\u201d that would receive the highest number of votes against Erdo\u011fan\u2026<\/p>\n

But they couldn\u2019t succeed in doing this\u2026.<\/p>\n

On the night of the rally in support of \u0130mamo\u011flu in Istanbul, I thought that he would have announced his candidacy “out of spite” because of the “prison sentence” given to him…<\/p>\n

He had a terrific \u201cmomentum\u201d behind him\u2026<\/p>\n

To be frank, I expected such a \u201cgesture\u201d from K\u0131l\u0131\u00e7daro\u011flu that night\u2026<\/p>\n

Of course, that didn\u2019t happen; just the opposite, K\u0131l\u0131\u00e7daro\u011flu succeeded in winning the support of both mayors\u2026<\/p>\n

All these developments show that there is room in Turkish politics for \u201ctardiness\u201d and holding back real intentions till the end.<\/p>\n

The \u201cTable of Six\u201d in fact was an alliance formed by the CHP with right-wing, nationalist and conservative parties\u2026.<\/p>\n

It was closed off to the \u201cLeft\u201d\u2026 It was closed off to the parties in which large numbers of Kurdish people were present .<\/p>\n

And the leading reason for this was the Good Party\u2019s \u201cred lines\u201d\u2026<\/p>\n

It is a fact that the \u201cTable of Six\u201d, in these two years, succeeded in creating a realistic \u201croad map\u201d on the future of Turkey\u2026<\/p>\n

The \u201cMemorandum of Understanding on Reinforced Parliamentary System\u201d it shared with the public contains \u201cstatements\u201d that can make important contributions to “transforming\u201d the authoritarian regime and reuniting the TR [Turkish Republic<\/em>] with democracy again\u2026<\/p>\n

However, it is also a fact that; the \u201cSix\u201d have not been able to produce a \u201cpolicy\u201d on the Cyprus issue which is different from that of the AKP [Justice and Development Party<\/em>] and this has created \u201cdisappointment \u201camong circles who demand a solution in Cyprus.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, it has created a serious \u201calternative\u201d to Mr Erdo\u011fan\u2019s regime. The ability of right-wing parties to form a \u201cfront\u201d with the CHP was a positive development for TR politics.<\/p>\n

And K\u0131l\u0131\u00e7daro\u011flu who again and again said \u201cI\u2019m a grey wolf too\u201d, who gave priority to expanding, not to the left but to the right of the political spectrum, has played an important role in this. What we witnessed in the few days that followed Meral Ak\u015fener\u2019s departure from the table is important in terms of the \u201ccalibre\u201d of TR politics.<\/p>\n

For days, both the \u201clanguage\u201d used and the level [stooped to<\/em>] were at their lowest.<\/p>\n

The media reminded how Meral Ak\u015fener in 2018 had first accepted the nomination of [former Turkish president<\/em>] Abdullah G\u00fcl as a \u201cjoint candidate\u201d \u00a0before abruptly changing her mind\u2026<\/p>\n

Now she was doing the same thing at the last minute, playing into Erdo\u011fan\u2019s hands\u2026 Or is there a \u201cdeep state\u201d operation in the works? Abdullah G\u00fcl,\u00a0 as soon as his joint candidacy was almost certain, was paid a visit by the Chief of Staff who arrived in a military helicopter, the next day Meral Ak\u015fener withdrew her support and announced her candidacy. The \u201cconspiracy theories\u201d were hotly debated on television for days\u2026<\/p>\n

The earthquake has been forgotten\u2026<\/p>\n

A seasoned journalist who knows Ms Ak\u015fener closely screamed out \u201cShame on you Meral, you should feel ashamed\u201d \u2026<\/p>\n

M\u00fcjdat Gezen [Turkish actor<\/em>] told her, \u201cDrop the Asena [famous Turkish belly dancer<\/em>] act, use your teaching skills for peace\u201d… [Translator’s note: reference to Ak\u015fener’s original profession as a history teacher<\/em>]. There were those who said, \u201cLook at her! She\u2019s wriggling like a belly dancer\u201d and those who called Meral Ak\u015fener a \u201csuicide bomber\u201d and even a \u201cpalace conspirator\u201d.<\/p>\n

While [journalist<\/em>] Can Atakl\u0131 said \u201cshe committed political suicide\u201d, [journalist<\/em>] Merdan Yanarda\u011f claimed, \u201cThere is an ongoing operation of the gang of five. Ms Ak\u015fener has been a part of this.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meral Ak\u015fener is a politician who entered politics in the DYP [True Path Party<\/em>] and later moved on to ANAP [Motherland Party<\/em>], and after engaging in politics with Erbakan [former Turkish PM<\/em>] and Abdullah G\u00fcl, joined MHP [Nationalist Movement Party<\/em>] and found herself next to Bah\u00e7eli [MHP leader<\/em>].<\/p>\n

We see that there is a \u201cliberal\u201d vein in her party and Atat\u00fcrk\u2019s name is being put forward quite often\u2026.<\/p>\n

It was quite interesting how she embraced the \u0130stanbul Convention\u2026<\/p>\n

However, she\u2019s closed off to \u201cleft\u201d politics\u2026 She resembles K\u0131l\u0131\u00e7daro\u011flu\u2019s \u201cshackles\u201d on this issue at the Table of Six\u2026 Now she\u2019s back\u2026<\/p>\n

Did she say, \u201cIt\u2019s better to lose the saddle than the horse\u201d, or is she really going to play a \u201crole\u201d in Erdo\u011fan\u2019s removal? We shall all wait with cautious optimism and see.<\/p>\n
