MHP leader Devlet Bahçeli made striking remarks regarding the 'absolute nullity' dispute roiling the CHP. Bahçeli said, 'It is acknowledged that Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu was treated unjustly; Kılıçdaroğlu is party leader,' and called on the CHP to set a date for its congress.
According to Cumhuriyet, assessments are circulating that Bahçeli took this step out of concern over tensions that could spill into street protests. His statement came during what has been described as a 'historic call' — one that has further deepened divisions within the CHP.

The CHP's internal legal dispute has now escalated to a point where actors from outside the opposition are actively intervening. The issue is expected to directly affect the CHP's party congress schedule in the coming days.
