Party Chairwoman Meral Akşener, Democracy and Progress Party

İYİ (Good) Party leader Meral Akşener stressed that the presidential candidate of the Nation Alliance should have state experience and would pursue a parliamentary system.

The main opposition Republican People's Party (CHP) leader Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu said he was ready to run in the next presidential elections if other opposition parties agree on his name.

"If my name is agreed on, I am ready," he said on Sept. 5 in an interview with Fox TV when asked about his possible presidential candidacy in the next elections.

The leaders of the six opposition parties have agreed to run in the next presidential elections with a joint candidate but without spelling out who he or she might be, in their sixth in-person meeting over the weekend.
