土耳其反对党人民共和党（CHP）前领导人欧泽尔在法院命令下被罢免后，于2026年7月宣布成立新党（Yeni Parti）[1]。该新党迅速吸收了大量CHP支持者，已拥有91名议员，成为土耳其第二大党，而曾经的第二大党CHP则因此沦为仅余44个议席的第四大党[1]。
根据IstanPol民调，约30%的受访者表示会投票给新党，另有19%表示倾向取决于党的纲领和领导人[1]。然而，新党面临的挑战在于组织建设的紧迫性。根据选举规则，新党需在2028年总统选举前在土耳其81个省中至少建立41个省的党组织才有参选资格[1]。
欧泽尔能否在这一时间窗口内完成组织结构建设，并在2028年总统选举前成为埃尔多安政府的有效挑战者，仍需进一步观察[1]。CHP曾在2024年3月地方选举中击败执政党AKP，赢得14个主要城市的控制权[1]。
Ozel, the former leader of Turkey's opposition Republican People's Party (CHP), has announced the formation of a new political party in July 2026 after being removed from his position by court order in May 2026 [1]. The new party, known as Yeni Parti, has already attracted substantial support from CHP members and now holds 91 parliamentary seats, positioning it to become Turkey's second-largest party [1].
The CHP, which had dominated Turkish opposition politics and won control of 14 major cities in the March 2024 local elections, has been significantly weakened by the defections to Ozel's new party [1]. The party's parliamentary representation has declined from its previous standing, leaving it as the fourth-largest party with only 44 seats [1].
Public sentiment appears favorable toward the new formation. According to IstanPol polling data, approximately 30 percent of respondents indicated they would vote for Yeni Parti, while an additional 19 percent said their support would depend on the party's platform and leadership [1].
Ozel's new party faces substantial organizational challenges ahead of the next presidential election scheduled for 2028 [1]. To qualify as a presidential candidate, Yeni Parti must establish party organizations in at least 41 of Turkey's 81 provinces before 2028 [1]. The coming years will determine whether the nascent party can build sufficient organizational infrastructure to mount an effective challenge to President Erdogan's government [1].
