Turkey’s opposition leader Ozgur Ozel announced his departure from the Republican People’s Party. He and his allies are forming a new political party after a court ruling. This move follows a court decision that reinstated former leader Kemal Kilicdaroglu. Ozel stated the new party marks a hopeful new beginning for opposition politics. The split could potentially strengthen President Erdogan’s long-standing grip on power. Turkey’s opposition leader Ozgur Ozel announced his departure from the Republican People’s Party.
