Political parties by country

Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) leader Devlet Bahçeli has expressed his support for Türkiye's new economic administration and emphasized the necessity of raising interest rates.

Bahçeli's remarks came ahead of the highly anticipated interest rate decision by the Central Bank, which is expected to be announced in the coming days.

Devlet Bahçeli, the leader of the Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) has called on the opposition parties to support the efforts for writing a brand-new civilian and democratic constitution in the new legislative year.

The final results of the parliamentary elections held on May 14 will be announced on May 30 at the latest, according to Supreme Election Council (YSK) head Ahmet Yener.

"The appeal files that have reached the [Supreme Election] council will be discussed today, and depending on their fate, the parliamentary results will be known today or tomorrow," YSK head Ahmet Yener said on May 29.

Nation Alliance's presidential candidate and main opposition Republican People's Party (CHP) leader Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu has witnessed a decline in votes in 11 provinces during the second round of the presidential election.

Despite securing 47.84 percent of the overall vote, Kılıçdaroğlu faced a decrease in support in certain regions.

The people of Türkiye have given a lesson of democracy to the entire world with massive and peaceful participation to the elections, the leader of the Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) has said.

Sinan Oğan, who entered the election as a non-partisan presidential candidate from Ata Alliance, has emerged as a game changer in the landmark May 14 polls, as he surprisingly took around 5 percent of the vote and stopped his rivals from winning outright.

The reshuffle has left some insiders and analysts suspecting that the prime minister's much-trumpeted media crusade - aimed at strengthening the independence of the public broadcaster, fighting disinformation and boosting strategic communications - was throttled by a cabal of powerful enemies.

Looming presidential and parliamentary polls will mark a new rise for Türkiye, President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has said, promising to revive 11 provinces that have been destroyed by the earthquakes.

An armed attack took place at İYİ (Good) Party's Istanbul headquarters on March 31, and an investigation has been launched into the incident.

A bullet hit the window of the cafeteria section of the building and another one hit a business center next to the İYİ Party's building.

"One-and-a-half months left to the elections, and our party building has been riddled with bullets from first to third floors following Recep's third threat," Aksener told a press conference after the attack.
