Demirtaş Calls for Discussion on Autonomy to Erdoğan, Akşener, Bahçeli, and Özdağ
Former HDP Co-Chair Selahattin Demirtaş, in his final defense during the Kobani case trial, called on party leaders to discuss autonomy. He also presented a seven-point proposal for resolving the Kurdish issue to the court. Demirtaş addressed accusations related to his use of the term 'Mr.' for Abdullah Öcalan, arguing that millions have called for negotiations with Öcalan to solve the Kurdish problem. He invited leaders from AK Parti, MHP, İYİ Parti, and Zafer Partisi to a live broadcast to discuss the realities of democratic autonomy. The ongoing trial involves accusations against HDP's former co-chairs and central executive board members for various crimes, including 'disrupting the unity of the state' and 'qualified homicide' related to the events of October 6-8, 2014.

Candidates and Disappointed Ones in Mersin
Candidates for the upcoming local elections in Mersin have largely been finalized, with both expected and surprising choices. The current mayor from CHP, Vahap Seçer, is running for re-election, while MHP has chosen Serdar Soydan as their candidate. Notably, Haluk Bozdoğan, the former mayor of Tarsus, resigned from CHP and announced his independent candidacy after not being re-nominated. This move, along with other candidate selections, could significantly impact the election dynamics in Mersin.

Will Ekrem İmamoğlu and Mansur Yavaş resign?
Meral Akşener, leader of the İYİ Party, proposed that Istanbul Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu and Ankara Mayor Mansur Yavaş be candidates for Vice President. Following a lengthy meeting, the Millet Alliance agreed on Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu as their presidential candidate and outlined a 12-point roadmap. Constitutional law experts Tolga Şirin and Levent Köker stated that İmamoğlu and Yavaş can campaign without resigning from their mayoral positions, as there is no constitutional provision for vice-presidential candidacy. The appointment of vice presidents is at the discretion of the President, with no limit on the number.

Defeat for Erdogan and Nationalists in Turkish Elections
In the Turkish local elections, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's AKP party faced a significant defeat, particularly in the major cities of Istanbul, Izmir, and the capital Ankara, where the opposition CHP party led by Ekrem Imamoglu gained a substantial lead. The CHP's success signals a call for political change after 22 years, with the party's leader Özgür Özel expressing optimism and criticizing the alleged misuse of security forces to inflate AKP votes in Kurdish cities. The decline in support for Erdogan's AKP and its allied nationalist parties, MHP and Iyi Parti, reflects the electorate's response to increasing poverty and the need for a shift in Turkey's political landscape.

Politics and Women
In 2022, the employment rate for women aged 15 and over was 30.4%, while it was 65.0% for men. The labor force participation rate was 51.4% overall, with 71.4% for men and 35.1% for women. Women's employment rates are less than half that of men's, and this disparity is even greater in politics. The AK Party has 54 female MPs out of 285, the CHP has 16 out of 134, the HDP has 22 out of 56, the MHP has 4 out of 48, and the İYİ Party has 2 out of 37. Since 1980, no significant increase in the number of female ministers has been observed, with a maximum of 2 serving in cabinets and the consistent assignment of women to the Ministry of Family and Social Policies. In the years following 2004, there were instances with no female council members, with only one or two women securing seats in recent years.

The issue that surrounds politics in Turkey: Syrian migrants
Turkey continues to grapple with the political, social, and economic impacts of the Syrian civil war, with 3.65 million Syrian refugees residing in the country as of August 2019. Turkish public opinion is divided, with some viewing refugees as guests while others see them as a security threat. Political parties have varying stances: the ruling AK Parti consolidates its base with ideological rhetoric, CHP focuses on financial transparency and human rights, İyi Parti emphasizes national security concerns, MHP aligns with AK Parti but acknowledges grassroots discomfort, and HDP advocates for human rights and opposes ethnic discrimination. The refugee issue remains a contentious topic in Turkish politics, with potential new developments on the horizon.
