Bahçeli

Representatives of opposition political parties criticized police raids on media outlets of the Koza Media Group on Sept. 1, with a main opposition party forming a commission to examine pressure on media outlets in Turkey.

One: Let?s confess it, the Justice and Development Party (AKP) scored tremendously against Devlet Bahçeli, the leader of the Nationalist Movement Party (MHP), when Tu?rul Türke?, who is the son of the party?s founding leader, accepted the ministerial post offered to him, defying his party?s official stance. This cannot be easily digested. Bahçeli received a serious kick.

Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) leader Devlet Bahçeli has implicitly accused a senior MHP member of ?treason? after the latter agreed to take part in an interim government upon invitation by incumbent Prime Minister Ahmet Davuto?lu and to the surprise of many.

Following President Tayyip Erdo?an?s remarks on Aug. 19 about Turkey swiftly heading for another election shortly after the one on June 7, the Supreme Election Board (YSK) sent a message to political parties on Aug. 20 suggesting Nov. 1 could be a suitable date for them to get ready for formalities.

As the escalation of violence in the country has raised a sense of insecurity among its citizens, Turkey's nationalist party leader has called for a declaration of martial law. 

Turkey is again experiencing, in a much heavier manner, a disaster it has gone through before: Politicians are blatantly sacrificing the economy. 

According to his political advisor Metin Özkan, the Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) has a complete list of 3,000 people, who his leader Devlet Bahçeli called as ?Those who live at waterfront residences, drink whisky and vote for the Peoples? Democratic Party [HDP].?

Could there be a mathematical error, chief Bahçeli? 

The Peoples' Democratic Party (HDP) has issued a criminal complaint against senior Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) officials, including leader Devlet Bahçeli, for inciting people to hatred and hostility as well insulting people.

The title of this column on June 13, just a week after the June 7 parliamentary elections, read ?An Erdo?an-Bahçeli coalition for early polls?,? questioning similarities on initial reactions of President Recep Tayyip Erdo?an and Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) leader Devlet Bahçeli. 

A day after Turkey?s Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) leader criticized the ?dishonorable, whisky-drinking rich people? who voted for the Peoples? Democratic Party (HDP) instead of the MHP, Bahçeli?s political advisor has said they had a ?list of 3,000 dishonorable people.?
