Actionner’s farewell to the “good” party; A woman with strategic mistakes

According to the international group Tasnim news agency, Ms. Meral Aksner is the leader of one of the most important political parties in Turkey. , left the leadership seat and took responsibility for the defeat of the “Good Party” in the recent elections.

Meral Akhsner as a nationalist and authoritarian woman politician who served as a minister in the Erbakan-Chiller coalition government. had been active in the country, he became one of the most important political figures in Turkey in the last few years. But now her petition has actually been mixed up and someone else is going to take over the leadership of the party.

Actioner who is the most important female politician in the history of the Republic of Turkey after the former Prime Minister Tansu Ciller. had found, in the past years he seriously affected the process of political-social developments in his country and the evidence shows that he caused irreparable damage to the opposition front in the presidential elections and practically adopted positions in two rounds of the presidential elections. that the final outcome was in favor of Erdogan and against the opponents.

Meral Achsner announced before his party congress and in his farewell speech that a few months ago, he received death threats.

The former leader of Good Party did not say who or what institution and group threatened him but then He announced that he has repeatedly expressed his opposition to the presidential system favored by Erdogan, and in his opinion, Turkey will not tolerate the damage of the totalitarian presidential system. Golestan, but the minefield has reached its current station and position and has endured many bitternesses.

Actionner implicitly criticized the previous allies and even his own party and said: “Today for the last time and I stand before you with peace of mind and a clear conscience. I have done everything I could.

Why was the emergence of Actionner important? Turkey’s political and party environment is not an easy task. Many of Turkey’s old parties, after decades of activity, do not have even one seat out of six hundred seats in the parliament, and a few important parties have only one or two seats after decades of effort. But the good party led by Mrs. Achsner, as a newly established party, won sixty seats, which was unprecedented in its kind. But later, Actionner’s party had internal divisions and many representatives joined other parties. So that now, the mentioned party has only 38 seats in the parliament.

One of the most important reasons for the internal differences of the Good Party was that most of the leaders and powerful figures of the party were people who, along with Actionner himself, As opponents of the continuation of the leadership of the Baghcheli government, they had branched off and separated from the Nationalist Movement Party. But after the establishment of the new party, complete coherence was not achieved and the power sharing process was objected to. >
Meral Actionner has made different and contradictory decisions during his 30-year political career. In 2001, he joined the initial group of founders of Justice and Development Party and believed that he could work with Abdullah Gul and others. But just 3 days before the announcement of the existence of the party, she got angry and went home. A few years after this incident, Ms. Akhsner went to the National Movement Party, and as a nationalist woman, she was noticed by Bagheli. took But this friendship only lasted for a few years and Actionner asked Baghcheli to leave the leadership!

The efforts of Actionner and several other critics of Baghcheli to hold a congress and remove Baghcheli did not work and they had to leave the party. They then established the Good Party as a nationalist party and very soon they were able to attract a significant part of the people to them.

In the 2019 elections, Erdogan’s opponents came to the conclusion support Abdullah Gul and make him the president. But Actionner declared that he does not agree with this decision and prefers to run personally!

Opponents also defended Moharram Inje and he got 15 million votes. But Actionner finally got 3,600,000 votes, even though Gol’s victory was certain if Gol was nominated.

Actionner’s next strategic mistake was in the 2023 elections. He agreed to be the main member of the Mellat coalition next to Klichdaroglu. But he had a disagreement with him and got angry. This violence caused heavy damage to the opposition front for several days, and then Actionner returned to the coalition.

After the defeat of the opposition, Actionner broke all the pots and pans against Kılıçdaroğlu and refused to support Imamoğlu in the local elections of 2024 and nominated candidates in all cities besides Istanbul. But it suffered a heavy defeat and the good party won in only one city out of 81 cities in the capital of the province. All these mistakes and totalitarianism finally raised the voice of the party leaders and they asked him to vacate the arena. ? Because announcing his defeat means registering a serious defeat for the entire far-right nationalists of Turkey.

Current evidence shows that regardless of who becomes the leader of the party, there is no hope for now. There is not much to restore its political-social position, and it is unlikely that the Good Party can once again become one of the important actors in the Turkish political arena.
