The most recent statements of DEVA's Babacan added a new problem to the state of chaos unleashed by another opposition leader’s remarks on party leaders exercising 'as much power as the president'
The level of ambiguity seems to increase as that debate continues, mainly because the Turkish opposition bloc, known as the 'table for six,' is in a challenging and contradictory pursuit
GP Chair Davutoğlu and DEVA Chair Babacan, the 'engineers' of the 'table for six' who face harsh criticism, work very hard to ensure the success of a political initiative that would lead to main opposition CHP’s domination
The pro-PKK HDP strengthened its hand vis-à-vis the 'table for six' by opting to field its own presidential candidate
The 'table for six' came up with a 'solution' that would make it easier for them to pick a presidential candidate: Since we cannot agree on whom to endorse, they said, let us all run for president!
