'WE WILL VOTE WITH OUR OWN CANDIDATES'
Now it's a matter of who will be the presidential candidate that everyone is looking forward to. We, as HDP, will share our presidential candidate with the peoples of Turkey as soon as possible. HDP will nominate its own candidate and will go to the elections with its own candidate. We do not have any partnership with the People's Alliance or the nation alliance; however, we have principled approaches but HDP's current decision is to enter the elections with its own candidate. I would like to state that we are making preparations to announce our own candidate as soon as possible, with the consent of women and youth, together with all the democratic forces of Turkey, together with the alliance of labor and freedom, by taking the suggestions and opinions of all segments in this country. Nobody should connect HDP to party A or B. HDP is a will in Turkey, a great power, and this will is a political party that aims to come out with a large percentage of votes in the elections depending on the power.
