“We want the elections to be held on June 18,” Justice and Development Party spokesman Omer Celik initially said.
He will surprise with early elections Recep Tayyip Erdogan? The Turkish president’s ruling party is considering a “minor change” in the date of elections scheduled for mid-June, the Omer Celik citing the… holidays as an excuse.
“We want the elections to be held on June 18,” the Justice and Development party representative initially said, when asked about the possibility of early elections, at a press conference he gave. But, he added, because this date coincides with the summer vacation period, when people travel, we are thinking of moving the date a little earlier.
Parliamentary and presidential elections are scheduled for June 18, and Erdogan has stated several times recently that they will take place in June.
“This date change does not equate to early elections (…) There is still no final decision from the party leadership, we are looking into it,” Celik said.
