Because politics is not built on perception campaigns, but on principles, hard work, and public trust.<\/p>\n<p>At this point, it is evident that certain circles are attempting to influence the CHP\u2019s dynamics because they know they cannot survive on their own. However, we must not allow those who are neither here nor there to attempt to dictate the party\u2019s direction through social engineering.<\/p>\n<p>Attempts by those seeking to undermine the CHP have been blocked by court rulings. Nevertheless, those who continue to seek to consolidate power, draw their support from external sources, and attempt to shape politics based on this mindset cannot be regarded as either the guardians of the Republic or true stalwarts of the CHP.<\/p>\n<p>If the solution is to expel them, then they should be expelled. If some individuals wish to go their own way by forming a new party, this should be viewed as a natural process of renewal. Because sometimes a split paves the way for institutions to regain their strength.<\/p>\n<p>We must not give those who make no contribution whatsoever to Turkish politics any more room to make their presence felt through a politics of constant crisis and victimhood. Those who turn internal party debates into personal vendettas are investing not in the CHP\u2019s future, but only in their own.<\/p>\n<p>Purification cannot be postponed. Because if the necessary steps are not taken, those who shout the loudest will begin to believe they are in the right, and those who make the most noise will start to think they are indispensable. What politics needs is not noise, but principle and resolve.<\/p>\n<p>This is precisely the challenge facing the CHP: to stand by its values and not surrender its future to short-term calculations.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Cumhuriyet Halk Partisi herkese a\u00e7\u0131k bir siyasi \u00e7at\u0131 olabilir; ancak bu durum, partinin de\u011ferlerini a\u015f\u0131nd\u0131rmaya \u00e7al\u0131\u015fanlara, ki\u015fisel \u00e7\u0131karlar\u0131n\u0131 parti menfaatlerinin \u00f6n\u00fcne koyanlara ve kamuoyunda g\u00fcven sorunu yaratan isimlere s\u0131n\u0131rs\u0131z alan tan\u0131naca\u011f\u0131 anlam\u0131na gelmez.
