İSTANBUL - CHP people who reacted to the fact that trustees were appointed in HDP's Dİyarbakır, Van and Mardin Municipalities, said a coup to the will of the people is unacceptable.

 
İMAMOĞLU: UNACCEPTABLE 
 
 
Ekrem İmamoğlu, the mayor of İstanbul Metropolitan Municipality from the main opposition Republican People's Party (CHP), has reacted to the Interior Ministry decision to discharge the mayors of Diyarbakır, Van and Mardin. All the discharged mayors of the mostly Kurdish populated southeastern cities are from the Peoples' Democratic Party (HDP).
 
İmamoğlu said, "It is impossible to associate the removal of Diyarbakır, Van and Mardin Mayors with democratic practices. The three mayors who are replaced by state-appointed trustees were elected by popular vote in the March 31 local elections. Ignoring the will of the people is unacceptable," on Twitter. 
 
 
CHP Group Deputy Chair and MP Özgür Özel: "The AKP rule, which is at the latest junction, has opted for not democracy, but fascism again. Removing the mayor preferred by a majority of the people from office means that the government opens its own existence to discussion. If someone who is elected with an election does not leave office with an election, then the power holders are coup plotting fascists!"
 
CHP MP Tanrıkulu: It is against the law
CHP MP Sezgin Tanrıkulu: "A coup is not only staged with tanks, cannons and rifles. Removing the elected mayors of Diyarbakır, Mardin and Van from office in the 4th month and appointing trustees in their place is against the law and it is a coup against the people's political preferences with election."
 
 
Kaftancıoğlu: It is against the law
CHP İstanbul Provincial Chair Canan Kaftancıoğlu: "Someone said 'advanced democracy', right? Just another blow to the will of the people: The removal of Diyarbakır, Mardin and Van Metropolitan Mayors from office and appointment of trustees in their place is against the law and a coup against the political preferences of the people with election."
 
CHP İstanbul Mp Özgür Karabat: "The discharge of the elected mayors of Diyarbakır, Van and Mardin is unnacceptable. It is treason. Is it only national will if people vote for you?
 
 
 
Taş: You cannot occupy people's will
Freedom and Solidarity Party (ÖDP) Board of Chairs member Alper Taş: "On March 31, the people defeated the order of trustees despite all pressures. You cannot occupy the will of the people by removing Diyarbakır, Van and Mardin Mayors from office. The order of trustees is an order of theft, an order of pressure. The Palace should resign. The word, authority, decision and rule belong to the people!"
