“After comprehensive discussing and consulting the issue with our authorized bodies, we have decided to run in the May 14 elections without joining any alliance,” Erbakan said.

Erbakan also noted that he would be the presidential candidate of his party in the presidential election that will take place in Turkey on 14 May 2023 as part of the 2023 general elections, alongside the parliamentary election.

On March 10, Fatih Erbakan, the son of late former Prime Minister Necmettin Erbakan, said that he would discuss the prospect of joining the ruling Justice and Development Party (AK Party)-led alliance with his party’s authorized bodies. (ILKHA)
