The Turkish opposition party, the Republican People's Party (CHP), is facing a significant legal challenge that could lead to the invalidation of its recent congress due to accusations of illegitimate election processes. The term 'Mutlak butlan,' or absolute nullity, could result in the party's reformist leadership losing its legitimacy. Following their defeat in the presidential elections, tensions within the CHP escalated with accusations that their leadership transition involved vote-buying. If found valid, this legal ruling may plunge the CHP into turmoil, affecting its ability to mobilize support in the fight against the ruling AKP party and President Erdogan.
The legal term 'Mutlak butlan' could render the CHP's leadership illegitimate, creating chaos for Turkey's opposition party if judges declare its recent congress invalid.
CHP, Turkey's leading opposition party, faces a trial that could nullify its recent congress, potentially leading to its reformist leadership losing legitimacy.
