“I Bow My Head in Shame” – Denktaş Slams Tatar and DP
Former leader of the Democratic Party (DP), Serdar Denktaş, has strongly criticised his party’s decision to support President Ersin Tatar in the upcoming presidential elections. Speaking on Kıbrıs Genç TV with Mustafa Alkan, Denktaş expressed his deep disappointment and addressed current political developments, launching harsh criticism at both President Tatar and his former party.
“Every time the man at the head of the republic speaks, I bow my head in shame. It’s an insult to Turkish Cypriot history,” said Denktaş, voicing his frustration with President Tatar’s public statements.
Turning his criticism to the Democratic Party, Denktaş accused the leadership of betrayal. “I said I would establish a new party, but I never said I would run. They claimed I would be a rival and used that as an excuse. It was a nice sellout. Even if I decided not to form a party, they wouldn’t have supported me anyway. They did the same in the last election. This is not a betrayal by the grassroots but by the leadership,” he said.
“I Won’t Split the Vote, but I’ll Never Vote for Tatar”
Addressing claims that his potential candidacy would split the vote, Denktaş shared results from a recent poll: “Some say ‘don’t run, you’ll split the vote.’ Interestingly, on the same day, I had a poll in my hand. If I don’t run, Erhürman gains nine points. But let me be clear: I won’t split the vote—but I will never vote for Tatar.”
