Kemal Kilicdaroglu, the recently reinstated chair of Turkey's main opposition party, announced plans for a congress. This comes after internal turmoil sparked by a court ruling that ousted the previous leadership.

Addressing reporters, Kilicdaroglu emphasized that the congress must adhere to legal conditions, following party procedures strictly. He assured that all decisions would be collectively made, with a likely convening of the party assembly.

He dismissed the idea of expulsions following the court ruling. Former leader Ozgur Ozel suggested a leadership vote among the party's 2 million members, diverging from the traditional delegate system.
