Nationalist Movement Party Extraordinary Congress

The İYİ (Good) Party has elected Müsavat Dervişoğlu as its new chairman during a party congress held in the wake of recent electoral setback.

Dervişoğlu, who serves as the party's deputy parliamentary leader and represents İzmir in the parliament, emerged victorious in the leadership election with 611 votes.

İYİ (Good) Party leader Meral Akşener has announced that she will not seek reelection for the party leadership following a disappointing performance in the local elections held on March 31.

Devlet Bahçeli, the leader of the Nationalist Movement Party (MHP), a part of the ruling People's Alliance, has extended an invitation to the İYİ (Good) Party for collaboration in the upcoming year's municipal elections.

The İYİ Party was founded by defectors from the MHP, expressing their dissent over Bahçeli's cooperation with the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP).

Victory Party Chairman Ümit Özdağ announced on May 24 that they will support Republican People's Party (CHP) leader Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, the candidate of the Nation Alliance, in the presidential election runoff.

Victory Party Chair Ümit Özdağ said on May 23 that his party will continue discussions with Republican People's Party (CHP) leader and Nation Alliance's presidential candidate Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu on the issue of lending support for his candidacy in the presidential election runoff.

Sinan Oğan, who entered the election as a non-partisan presidential candidate from Ata Alliance, has emerged as a game changer in the landmark May 14 polls, as he surprisingly took around 5 percent of the vote and stopped his rivals from winning outright.

Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) leader Devlet Bahçeli accused the six opposition parties on March 7 of being "unprincipled," suggesting that even in the nomination process of their presidential candidate, the members of the alliance acted with a lack of principles.

Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) leader Devlet Bahçeli has lashed out at opposition politicians who have accused the MHP of allegedly being involved in the killing of a former head of the Grey Wolves body of the nationalist party, Sinan Ateş.

It is "very respectable" that the main opposition Republican People's Party (CHP) leader Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu said he would be honored if the opposition parties offer his nomination for the upcoming presidential elections, İYİ (Good) Party leader Meral Akşener said.

The Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) leader Devlet Bahçeli, on June 7, reiterated that his party favors Turkey to go to the polls at the scheduled time, slated for June 2023.

"Whether they like it or not, the election will be held on time, and the date of that democratic appointment is June 2023," he said addressing his lawmakers in parliament.
