CHP Chairman Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, IMM President Ekrem İmamoğluHe interrupted his visit to Germany after being sentenced to 2 years 7 months and 15 days in prison. İmamoğlu hosted Kılıçdaroğlu, whom he met at Atatürk Airport, in his office in Saraçhane. Kılıçdaroğlu said, “The injustice of Ekrem President actually means the usurpation of the rights of 16 million people,” said Kılıçdaroğlu, “If a judiciary usurps the rights of 16 million people, that judiciary is not a judiciary. That judgment is a judgment that has surrendered its will to someone else. We do not call them judges. It will be a judgment in which the judges dominate. So, Mr President, don't get discouraged. Keep your smile. Look at life with a smile. Look at your spouse, children, relatives with a smile. And serve 16 million people with a smile. Don't be the least bit worried about it. 16 million embrace you. President of the Future Party Ahmet Davutoğlu, who was hosted by İmamoğlu after Kılıçdaroğlu, said, “I was really embarrassed to see how politics distracted people from principles. Those who fall into power corruption enter such a vicious circle that; mind and conscience go. The issue is not falling into the corruption of that power and seeing these authorities as temporary. Unfortunately, Mr. President sees himself as the owner of that office, even if he leaves every office he occupied.

To the delegation that went to İmamoğlu's office here; Ankara Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Mansur Yavaş, Izmir Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Tunç SoyerEskişehir Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Yılmaz Büyükerşen and Antalya Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Muhittin Böcek also accompanied.
“SORRY DOESN'T BE SUITABLE FOR US, BECAUSE WE ARE RIGHT”
Kılıçdaroğlu conveyed his support to İmamoğlu and used the following expressions: “Sadness does not suit us. Because we are right. As long as we are right, we should always smile. We will correct all these injustices that we smile at the injustices. Together, we will express our will on the issue of correction. The injustice of Ekrem President actually means the usurpation of the rights of 16 million people. If a judiciary usurps the rights of 16 million people, that judiciary is not a judiciary. That judgment is a judgment that has surrendered its will to someone else. We do not call them judges. It will be a judgment in which the judges dominate. So, Mr President, don't get discouraged. Keep your smile. Look at life with a smile. Look at your spouse, children, relatives with a smile. And serve 16 million people with a smile. Don't be the least bit worried about it. 16 million embrace you.”
“THEY WERE NOT SATISFYED WITH ISTANBUL'S RANT”
“Also, let me say one more thing. A similar event was held for our mayor in İzmir. He was tried for more than a hundred years and was acquitted. I went there too. I said there too. I said the same things. Aziz Kocaoğlu served the people of Izmir. He worked for the people of Izmir. And in this struggle, both the judiciary delivered that he was right, and the people of İzmir delivered. They envy your success, too. They are not ready. But they will not. They couldn't get enough of Istanbul's rent. We will not feed them. Istanbul's rent belongs to Istanbulites. Ekrem President will deliver this rent to Istanbulites. They cannot tolerate this. They want to get the rent. But God is great. As long as we are right, we will solve all these problems under your presidency. Don't worry about it in the slightest."
DAVUTOĞLU: “I HEARED HOW POLITICS TURNS PEOPLE AWAY FROM PRINCIPLES”
After Kılıçdaroğlu, İmamoğlu hosted Ahmet Davutoğlu, Chairman of the Future Party. Expressing the purpose of his visit with the words “It is not only our duty to support you, it is our duty, but also to support the national will and support the culture of democracy in Turkey,” Davutoğlu said, “The sad part is; I'm emotional coming now. Because we were in this building when the decision regarding Tayyip Bey was announced. And I wouldn't have imagined that people who lived that moment now would experience such a moment again, years later, almost a quarter of a century later. I am truly ashamed to see how politics turns people away from principles. The issue is certainly a political issue, but it is a supra-political issue. This is a matter of culture, this is a matter of how a common social life and common values are eroded. Therefore, everyone without 'but' or 'but' should be in full solidarity.”
“TO BE WITH YOU IS TO BE WITH DEMOCRACY TODAY”
Noting that they received the news when they were experiencing the happiness of the 3rd anniversary of his party, Davutoğlu said, “I called the President in the morning to say 'We are with you no matter the outcome'. Then we met with Mr. Akşener in the context of these leader visits. You mentioned it there. Just as I was about to go to the celebration and end my speech, the news fell in front of me. I already emphasized it there, also in the speech. We talked to Mr. Kılıçdaroğlu from Germany”. Emphasizing that he cares about the Saraçhane meeting where 6 leaders will come together tomorrow, Davutoğlu said, “The day is today. If a democracy is in question, it is necessary to act without hesitation and take a stand without hesitation. That's why I'm happy that it has come to fruition so quickly. Later, I listened to your statement with Mr. Akşener. I was happy with them too. We are with you. Being on your side is being on the side of democracy today and being on the side of the national will. In that respect, no one should doubt that we will deliver the strongest messages tomorrow as well.”
İMAMOĞLU: “THIS JUST INCREASES OUR RESOLUTION, RISES OUR HOPE”
Thanking Davutoğlu for his visit, İmamoğlu said, “You came to Istanbul at this hour and were together with us. It is really a great betrayal of our country's democracy to bring such a moment back to this country as the witnesses of that day after many years. We would like to go forward, but unfortunately we have gone backwards. I hope that together we will carry the process to a much better place with your cooperation in the best way possible. This only increases our determination, raises our hope, increases our strength. It won't cause anything else. After this hour, I will continue to say to those who took this decision, 'May God give wisdom', Prime Minister," he said.
DAVUTOĞLU: “THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE CORRUPTION OF POWER ENTER IN A VIRTUAL CYCLE; GOES TO THE MIND AND THE CONSCIOUSNESS”
Davutoğlu, who spoke again after İmamoğlu's words, gave the following response to the IMM President:
“On the way, friends said, 'How can such a political delusion happen?' I said; 'Those who fall into power corruption enter such a vicious circle that; mind and conscience go. The issue is not falling into the corruption of that power and seeing these authorities as temporary. Unfortunately, Mr. President sees himself as the owner of that office, even if he leaves every office he occupied. We have had many examples of this. 'This is an independent judiciary,' he explains. So, give a voice and say, 'We are against this decision.' No further statement until now. Then this is the politicization of the judiciary. There are moments when you don't react immediately, your reaction doesn't make any sense. This calculation cannot be done in democracy, in the political struggle. I am expressing this not only on my own behalf, but also on behalf of all our party boards.”
