AK Party Election Affairs Chair Ali İhsan Yavuz said that if Parliament renews the elections, President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan could run again, and moving it a week earlier would be sufficient.
Yavuz said that elections will be held in May 2028 according to the normal schedule, but if the TBMM takes a decision to renew elections with 360 deputies, Erdoğan can be a candidate again. He said, 'A decision taken shortly before the time is considered timely.' He also added that the party has not yet made a decision in this direction.
