Former media boss Cem Uzan, Founding Chairman of the Young Party, said, 'Wait for October on media, I have surprises.' The 2023 elections are approaching. While people were wondering about the candidates of the Nation and People's Alliances, a flash statement came from Cem Uzan, the founder of the Genç Party.
Will Cem Uzan Become a Presidential Candidate?
SözcüAnswering the questions of Saygı Öztürk from Turkey, Uzan said: "There are 12 months left until the end of Erdoğan's term of office. CHP, IYI Party, HDP and other opposition parties should not let anyone move their hands. If you wait for the normal process on 25 June 2023, take Turkey to the elections without leading to social, political and vital chaos, just as it went into economic chaos.
Believing that Erdogan will not be a candidate in the next elections, Uzan also said:
“Erdogan's term ends in 12 months. Do nothing, sit down, wait for election time that's it. I call out to all three of the CHP, IYI Party and HDP: Make a commitment to the nation: 'We will not say yes to the early elections and we will ensure that the term of Recep Tayyip Erdogan is over'. Let's see if Recep Tayyip Erdogan can be a candidate. Thus, you will not be dealing with either SADAT or YSK. The election will be on June 25, 2023, and the era of Recep Tayyip Erdogan will end, he will retire. Turkey will open a new page.
Underlining the need to say no to early elections, Uzan said, “For the elections to be held in June 2023, each party will nominate the candidate within the framework of the Constitution, and the people will elect whomever they want. Erdogan will also retire. The Erdogan era will end in 12 months.”
That's why the opposition parties say 'Hold on there; Do nothing, 12 months later, I say, 'Retire Erdogan, let him go'. Do not interfere in his committing crimes against the Constitution”
“I am told 'there are definite prison sentences for you'. To those who say, 'One minute,' I say and respond as follows: Süleyman Demirel was also banned. Has the prime minister become president? it happened. Was Bulent Ecevit banned? He was banned, he became prime minister. Necmettin Erbakan was banned. He became prime minister. Recep Tayyip Erdogan was also banned, did he become prime minister and president? it happened. I am also banned. I will be president, not prime minister. Prohibitions do not prevent anyone as long as the people vote.
