High-level diplomatic talks in Türkiye signal ongoing political normalization efforts this week

Turkish politics anticipates a busy week ahead with a focus on normalization efforts. President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s upcoming return visit to the Republican People’s Party (CHP) stands out, alongside Parliament Speaker Numan Kurtulmus’ outreach to parties for a fresh constitution. Additionally, Musavat Dervisoglu, the newly appointed chairman of the Good Party (IYI Party – IP), will receive congratulatory visits.

Erdogan to visit CHP

Erdogan is expected to pay a return visit to CHP leader Ozgur Ozel. It is rumored that Erdogan may visit Ozel at CHP headquarters after the group meeting on Wednesday.

Kurtulmus to knock on MHP, CHP’s door for new constitution

Kurtulmus is set to visit MHP and the CHP as part of his tour focused on crafting a new constitution. Ankara and Parliament are gearing up for a hectic week as the political landscape embraces the “normalization” phase, which began with Ozel’s recent visit to Erdogan.

Congratulatory visits to IP

The newly elected president of the IP, Dervisoglu, is anticipated to receive congratulatory visits from various party leaders.

Meanwhile, the Law Proposal regarding the establishment of the Foundation for Strengthening the Foreign Affairs Organization, submitted to the Parliamentary Presidency last week, is slated for discussion in the Parliament Plan and Budget Commission.
