Former MHP member: ‘There is a dangerous plan to create a controlled chaos in Turkey’

At a recent conference held in New York’s John Jay University organized by Turkey’s main opposition party CHP’s USA office, members of various civil society organizations, media professionals, and politicians from different platforms gathered to hold discussions on the ongoing referendum process in Turkey and declare their stand ‘against’ the proposed constitutional amendments and the presidential system.

Among the former members of Turkey’s Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) who were dismissed from the party because of their objections, independent representative Ümit Özdağ also joined the conference from Turkey through a video call.

‘Turkey’s government and Palace are praying for another Gezi in the country’

Warning that there are plans of the current government to create ‘a controlled chaos’ in the country, Özdağ said the following: “The Palace (President’s office) is so afraid that the Turkish nationalists will cast a ‘no’ vote. They are afraid for us to come together with the public. And, they are planning a controlled chaos... Our friends are told ‘if you lead a ‘no’ propaganda either independently or with a civil society or a platform, you are going to be taken into custody.’ The official number of people taken into custody for saying ‘no’ is so far 45. There is no violence or vandalism; yet, 45 people have been taken into custody simply for saying ‘no’. I believe that the government and the Palace are praying that another ‘Gezi’ would break out in Turkey. Actually, I even have proofs for that. They want a controllable chaos. And, in this chaos, they want the no voters to appear as ‘violent’ so that the state can use all of its means to oppress them. They are trying to create panic among the public and take advantage of this to increase ‘yes’ votes... Since I have evidence to prove this, I shared all the details with CHP Chair Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu and I gave a warning. There is this plan and it is a dangerous plan. No government can have the privilage to create a ‘controllable chaos.’ Because, no chaos in Turkey can ever be controlled again. And, that would take Turkey to an unknown route... Turkey shall not fall for this trap.”
