Ozel։ "We will collect 30 million signatures for early elections"
![]() 508 Tuesday, 15 April, 2025, 14:46 The leader of the opposition Republican People's Party, Ozgur Ozel, told the Financial Times that the opposition plans to collect 30 million signatures from citizens to release the arrested mayor of Istanbul, Ekrem Imamoglu, and hold early elections. This figure is more than the votes Erdogan received in the last presidential election. In addition, rallies will continue every Wednesday in Istanbul, and at varying intervals throughout the country. The opposition intends to achieve a change of power peacefully. The campaign to collect signatures for early elections in Turkey was launched on March 30 in the province of Trabzon, where the arrested mayor of Istanbul, Ekrem Imamoglu, was born. At the same time, plans were announced to collect 28 million signatures - slightly more than the number of votes that the current President of Turkey, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, received in the elections in May 2023. Presidential elections in Turkey are scheduled for 2028, but the opposition is pushing for early elections. |
