Former Turkish opposition leader Ozgur Ozel has launched a new political party, the “New Party,” after being ousted from the CHP and joined by 90 other lawmakers — a bold move that could reshape Turkey’s political landscape and challenge President Erdogan’s grip. The split follows a court ruling that nullified Ozel’s election as CHP chair, reinstating Kemal Kilicdaroglu, sparking accusations of political manipulation. Ozel’s supporters argue this is part of a broader crackdown on the opposition, especially after recent local election successes under his leadership. With 91 MPs, the New Party now stands as the strongest opposition force in parliament, while the government insists its courts remain independent. The stage is set for a dramatic new chapter in Turkish politics.
