“The concentration of two million people today, in its Maltep, after the call of the Opposition, the Republican People’s Party (CHP), despite the ban and the brutal repression, was not just a party support for the party and the persecuted. It was the most intense manifestation of collective anger and demands of its deep polarized society. Its Palaean character sends an extremely loud message to the Erdogan government, “Turkish analyst Dora Meguts, focusing on the anthropogenicism of Maltepe, the site of the large election rallies of the candidates and presidents, to the anthropogenicism of Maltep.
“Today, young people, the elderly, retirees, the middle class, petty public, private employees, students and unemployed were joined. And while the event was organized by the CHP, the crowd was not politically homogeneous, “the analyst adds.
Ekrem Imamoglu’s mother joined her voice with today’s wife
“Supporters of the leader of the party’s victory of Umit Ozdag – who, like the mayor of Constantinople, are today imprisoned in Silivri -. As did the pro -Kurdish Democratic DEM party. What united them is the deep frustration and anger for the erosion of the rule of law but also the growing economic crisis.
“We are not here just to complain, we are here to demand,” you heard of indignant citizens walking for hours from different corners of the city to reach Maltepe Square, passing through strict police controls. “
DEM’s attitude
And in the seven days of demonstrations in the Sarachchane area of Constantinople, the DEM was abstaining. Surprisingly, “the party is against the arrest of Imamoglou and the pressure of the government, but does not want to become the government’s target. Indeed, his latest co -chair, Tunzer Bakchery, kept security distances, saying “we are not the action team of the CHP”. They do not want the solution to the Kurdish issue and Ocalan’s call for “peace”. “
At the rally in Maltepe, which one day earlier, in his X account, Chp President Ozgur Ozel had described as “our path to power”, Chp mayors, MPs and members of the Imamoglou family – even his mother – went to the step. Ozel spoke to the crowd in a fiery tongue, describing the arrest of Imamoglou as a “political coup”, calling for early elections.
“Release our candidate, bring us the ballot box,” he demanded, criticizing President Erdogan, and denouncing continuing legal and political pressure on opposition officials. “You were the ones who signed the Treaty of Sevres. We were the ones who torn it, “he shouted.
Imoglou’s letter
The letter of Imamoglou, who does not lose his morale and his militancy from prison, and sends daily inspiration to the citizens of the country, was heard in his voice, with the help of artificial intelligence. “This is not about this concentration Ekrem Imamoglou. It is about our nation. The nation is greater than any government, “he heard, giving up the crowds, which they were constantly cheering.
At the end of the People’s Institution, Ozel pledged that his party would bring freedom and democracy: “Release our candidate. Bring the ballot box, “he shouted, calling again to early elections and announcing that the campaign to reinforce them will begin in Imoglou’s hometown, Trabzon, on the first day of Bayram, at the end of Ramadan.
“Fifteen million people came (in the Chp qualification) and said ‘no’, in Monomania, ‘no’ to dictatorship. We are the nation, we will win. We hold the biggest meeting here in history, while the coup d’etat are still in power and act as a junta on us. We will focus on the Tele 1, Sözcü TV and Halk TV channels, whose licenses are attempted to be revoked, with penalties. “
The attack on the Supreme Council of Radio and Television (RTük)
At the end of his speech, the President of the Opposition Officer demanded that the concentration from the channels be broadcast, launching masts to the Supreme Council of Radio and Television (RTük), which only threw “black” only on the channels that relayed them. “RTük shoots democracy through the window of censorship,” Ozel stressed, warning the private NTV channel “we give you 40 minutes. If you do not relay our concentration live, you will face the consequences. “
“Following his threat, Habertürk broadcast the syllabus for a few minutes, but NTV did not respond,” Meguts tells us, describing us as “one of the most moving moments of the rally” the speech of the student, who spoke to her, who spoke to her. They return to their lessons: “I’m not just here for Efamoglou. I am here for my detainees, arrested journalists and lawyers. I am here for justice, for democracy. ” The crowd applauded her.
Thousands of citizens, who did not approach Maltepe, had gathered all the Constantinople and Marmaras subway stations, with the Turkish flag and scarf and placards in the form of Imamoglou.
