Özgür Özel names Mansur Yavaş as potential presidential candidate

Özgür Özel, leader of the Yeni Parti, has identified Mansur Yavaş as a potential candidate for the presidency. Özel stated that Yavaş is a significant option and claimed that 60% of the population views him as a presidential candidate.

During a speech in Yalova, Özel outlined strategic political goals for the party, including a '50+1' formula to achieve a parliamentary majority and a '60+1' formula for electing a president. The party also aims to transition to a parliamentary system.

The Yeni Parti is currently facing a naming crisis. The Chief Public Prosecutor's Office of the Court of Cassation has requested a name change for the party. Despite the party's ambitions, official records still list the party name as 'YENİ PARTİ' with zero registered members as of the latest update.
