"We are doing politics with and for our nation"

AK Party Istanbul Provincial Chairman Abdullah Özdemir spoke at the AK Party Organizational Academy Closing Ceremony held at the Haliç Congress Center, which was also attended by President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. Speaking at the event, Özdemir said, "Aware of the process we are going through, all its internal and external conditions, and the historical responsibility it imposes on us, we continue our work in every field with great desire and excitement. 'Intra-organizational training,' which forms the axis of our current program, is undoubtedly one of the most important of these. As the Istanbul organization, we carry out our work on every platform and in every field with this awareness, this equipment, and this meticulousness."

Continuing his speech, AK Party Istanbul Provincial Chair Özdemir said, "We have always believed this from the outset: We have always had much to tell our nation, and much to do. Because as the AK Party, we are not the party of empty promises, empty rhetoric, fruitless polemics, or those who forget what they say; we are the party of those who do what they say, who honor their promises, and who realize their dreams. Indeed, in every field, from undertaking previously unimaginable things in the defense industry to fulfilling the promises we made to our earthquake-stricken brothers and sisters as quickly as possible, we have become a party that 'never says it won't do it, but always does what it says.' With the motto 'Nothing will ever be the same again,' we have seen and learned from our leader and Chairman Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, who has breathed new life, a different understanding, and bold horizons into our politics since the day we were founded, and that's what we do."

"AK Party politics is a politics of cause that relies solely on the nation and sees legitimacy only in the nation."

Özdemir, emphasizing that AK Party politics is a politics of cause that relies solely on the nation and sees legitimacy solely in the nation, said, "Our gross national product, now expressed in trillions of dollars, is the result of this spirit. This is our Steel Dome, our Blue Homeland sensitivity. This is the Century of Turkey, this is a Turkey Without Terrorism. Because we are engaged in 'politics with our nation and for our nation.' AK Party politics is not about complaining about the country to foreign powers as some do, but rather a politics of cause that relies solely on the nation and sees legitimacy solely in the nation. We enshrine in our minds and hearts, as an indispensable principle, that we will carry out this politics not only by originating from the heart of the nation, but by remaining within the heart of the nation, without preening to the nation and without betraying the trust given to us by the nation. We have much more to do, many dreams to realize. We still have many blessings to receive from our cherished nation. As the Istanbul organization, we are ready for this; we are here, and we always stand behind our leader like a mountain range with our women's branches, youth branches, and main level. "There is no rest, we are always on our feet. As I conclude my remarks here, I would like to express my respect and gratitude to our Chairman and President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan for honoring our program. I greet you all with respect and affection," he said.
