Ousted Turkey Opposition Leader Plans New Party Amid Polarization Crisis The ousting of Ozgur Ozel, former leader of Turkey's main opposition party CHP, has sparked widespread speculation about the future of Turkish politics.
Ozel's decision to resign and establish a new party, reportedly called "Yeni Party" ("New Party"), has left many wondering whether this fresh start will revitalize the opposition's flagging fortunes.
The roots of this crisis lie in the CHP's internal power struggle, which saw Ozel removed as head of the party by court order in May.
