The photo went viral! Will Davutoğlu join the People's Alliance? Here are the party's conditions for support.

The photo of Future Party Chairman Ahmet Davutoğlu sitting next to AKP President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, which emerged at the reception held after the opening ceremonies of the new legislative session of the Turkish Grand National Assembly, has sparked various comments.

Party spokesperson Ufuk Karcı responded to allegations regarding whether Davutoğlu's Future Party would join the People's Alliance. Appearing as a guest on TELE 1's program "Akın Mesele" (The Real Issue), Karcı answered İnan Demirel's questions. Karcı stated:

Why did Future Party Chairman Professor Dr. Ahmet Davutoğlu resign from his position as Chairman of the Justice and Development Party and Prime Minister of the Republic of Turkey for the 26th time? He mentioned the political ethics law. Is that true? He mentioned the political ethics law. Is that true?

If these had been done, would the corruption in Türkiye that we are talking about today, the gangs in Türkiye, the unjust enrichment of these gangs, or the paving the way for the unjust enrichment of politicians, have been prevented? It would have happened. Is this the case? No.

"WE SAY OUR PRINCIPLES FIRST"

Under current circumstances? When these are not the case, adopting an approach like, "What was given to us in the alliance proposal? What was asked of us? What will it bring us? What will we achieve?" is out of the question. In that case, the very existence of the Future Party, which was formed with the presence of Mr. Ahmet Davutoğlu, would be completely questioned.

We prioritize our principles because we believe these principles benefit this society. We will meet with the AK Party, the Republican People's Party, and the Nationalist Movement Party in light of these countries. But these discussions will be conducted in light of these principles and with an eye on the public good.

Mr. President, if we bring the political ethics law to the parliament and Mr. Davutoğlu supports it, Mr. Davutoğlu will support it.
