Özgür Özel is the leader of Turkey's Republican People's Party and a former parliamentary group leader.
Today I came to Ardahan as the Chairman of the YENİ Party; God willing, I will also come as the Chairman of the ruling party. We will walk this path together, without leaving anyone behind.
Translated from TurkishWe said we would truly establish the YENİ Party together with the people. That is why we are traveling from village to village and city to city; we listen more than we talk. From my beloved Serhat city of Ardahan, we received our pledge and gave our pledge. When the YENİ Party comes, it will be those left behind, not those with connections, who move to the forefront!
Translated from TurkishWe are meeting with our citizens in Ardahan.
Translated from TurkishSeptember 9, 1922, is the date of victory for our nation that did not bow to occupation. I commemorate with respect, mercy, and gratitude all the heroes of the National Struggle, foremost among them Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. We will uphold to the very end the Republic, independence, and the legacy of the heroes who made these lands our homeland. Happy 104th anniversary of İzmir’s liberation.
Translated from TurkishWell done! I wholeheartedly congratulate the Sultans of the Net, who became European champions for the second time in a row by defeating Italy 3-2. With your hard work, courage, and faith, you have once again brought great honor to our country. We are proud of you.
Translated from TurkishPatience until the ballot box, relief after the ballot box! Kırklareli Farmers’ Meeting
Translated from TurkishThe AK Party’s outdated, arrogant, old-fashioned order did not do Turkey any good. The nation’s NEW order will be good for everyone. Edirne | Kırklareli
Translated from TurkishWe are together with our farmers in Kırklareli.

Translated from TurkishNo one can stand in the way of the solidarity of families demanding justice! They blocked access to the Aile Dayanışma Ağı social media account, and a new one was opened. Let us all follow it.
Translated from TurkishWe are with our citizens who welcomed us in Çorlu, Tekirdağ.
Translated from TurkishThe Sivas Congress is a historic turning point at which our nation declared to the whole world that it would not surrender to occupation, a mandate, or tutelage. The future of a country can only be determined by the will of its own nation. On the 107th anniversary of the Sivas Congress, I respectfully and gratefully commemorate all the heroes of our struggle for independence, foremost among them Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk.
Translated from TurkishI grew up on these lands hoeing cotton, irrigating vineyards, and cutting and drying grapes. Unfortunately, at the point we have reached today, our farmers are in debt. Vineyards are being uprooted, fields are mortgaged… Under a YENİ Party government, we will wipe out the interest on agricultural loans and spread the principal over 3 years. We will give our producers who fall on hard times a "Second Chance Loan." The very good days of these villages and this country are near!
Translated from TurkishWe met with our grape growers in Hacıhaliller, Manisa, where I spent my childhood and worked in its fields; we listened to our farmers’ problems, concerns, and demands. Afterwards, we talked things over with our neighbors and relatives at the village coffeehouse. We have never forgotten where we came from or for whom we do politics. We will repay our debt to these lands by bringing a smile to the nation’s face.
Translated from TurkishWe are together with our fellow townspeople at the village coffeehouse in Hacıhaliller neighborhood in my hometown, Manisa.
Translated from TurkishTake these words to every corner of your country: Tell them: YENİ Parti is coming! It is coming to stand on the side of the nation, not the fight. It is coming to take on responsibility, not office. It is coming to return the state to the people!
Translated from TurkishWe are not coming to power to tear down anyone's home. We are coming to repair Turkey's broken order. Our opponent is not our neighbor who thinks differently. Our opponent is poverty, injustice, and waste.
Translated from TurkishWe are following the ferry accident that occurred off Girne with great sadness and concern. We spoke by phone with CTP Chairwoman Ms. Sıla Usar İncirli and received information. We have also appointed a delegation to represent our party and travel to the TRNC. I ask God to have mercy on those who lost their lives, offer my condolences to their families and the Turkish Cypriot people, and wish the injured a speedy recovery. I hope that the loss of life does not increase and that we reach our missing people safe and sound as soon as possible, and I wish ease to all our teams working in the search and rescue efforts. I extend my get-well wishes to our entire nation and the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus.
Translated from TurkishChanging a country’s destiny begins, first, with believing that destiny can be changed. I commemorate with respect, mercy, and gratitude all our heroes who crowned this belief with victory, foremost among them Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. Happy August 30 Victory Day.
Translated from TurkishIf my 70-year-old aunt says, “If I could find a job, I would work too,” then something is not right. If young people are afraid to start families, and mothers are afraid for their children’s future, then something is not right. We will change this corrupt system that gives with a spoon and takes with a ladle. With a daycare center in every neighborhood, a basic income, and pension rights for homemakers, the state will stand by the people.
Translated from TurkishOur place is alongside the people. Today, we embraced Kayseri, shared our troubles, and listened at length. Once again, we saw that our people have not run out of things to say. Our duty is to hear those words and share in that dream. Because YENİ Party is the party of those who feel at home wherever they go in Türkiye, who sit at the same table as their people, and who take the same troubles to heart.
