- Deniz Baykal, the former chairman of the Republican People’s Party (CHP), has been announced as the social democrat party’s candidate for the parliament speaker position, despite strong in-house criticism against him because of his controversial meeting with President Tayyip Erdoğan following the June 7 election.
The decision on Baykal’s nomination was made during the Central Decision-Making Council (MYK) meeting of the CHP under the leadership of Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu. Baykal, as the oldest member of parliament, chaired the assembly’s oath-taking ceremony and will stand as the acting parliament speaker until a permanent one is elected before July 3.
Baykal’s meeting with Erdoğan only three days after the June 7 election created a stir within the party, with claims the veteran politician made a fait accompli to his chairman. Baykal complained about harsh criticisms directed towards him from his fellow party members at a meeting late June 22, followed by a private meeting with Kılıçdaroğlu.
The deadline to apply for the parliament speaker position is June 27, with the voting process to begin June 30.
