Erdoğan has imprisoned 6000 people from the HDP since 2015, and replaced elected HDP mayors with state appointed governors. The Turkish state began moves to criminalise the HDP before the election, so the movement formed the Green Left Party to contest the elections @HDP_Europe
The Green Left Party isn't your average political party. They want to create radical, people-centred democracy in Turkey, led from a grassroots level. Read our Canary article about them here #TurkeyElections thecanary.co/opinion/2023/0… @HDP_Europe
