MHP official criticizes İYİ Party rally, calls slogans 'empty'

A senior advisor to the MHP leader, Eyyup Yıldız, has strongly criticized a recent rally held by the İYİ Party in Ankara, dismissing its messaging as ineffective.

Yıldız took to social media to voice his objections to the "Flag Rally" where İYİ Party leader Müsavat Dervişoğlu spoke. He directly challenged the opposition party, stating, "Instead of gathering in Tandoğan and opposing the Terror-Free Turkey process, the road to Qandil is open; go ahead, if you can make those in Qandil lay down their arms, lay them down, if you can end terrorism, end it."

Instead of gathering in Tandoğan and opposing the Terror-Free Turkey process, the road to Qandil is open; go ahead, if you can make those in Qandil lay down their arms, lay them down, if you can end terrorism, end it.

He further suggested that the İYİ Party could even hold a rally in Qandil itself. Yıldız asserted that the Turkish nation's desire for a Turkey free from terrorism cannot be thwarted by what he termed "empty slogans" emanating from public gatherings. This exchange reflects the ongoing political tensions and differing approaches to national security issues among Turkish political parties.

But know this: the nation's will for a Terror-Free Turkey cannot be stopped by empty slogans rising from the squares.
