Is Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu Turkey’s Zelig?
" If the 13th-century Sufi scholar Seyyid Mahmud Hayrani was his grandfather, Kılıçdaroğlu's ancestry hails from the Ottoman Palace with one of his great-grandfathers being the qadi of Mehmed the Conqueror and another being his grand vizier!
Kılıçdaroğlu once made a long speech at the Yörük Workshop, saying, "What struggles were waged in these tents against the oppression of the Ottomans!" However, before the Great Yörük gathering in January 2023, he did not call the Ottomans cruel this time, but visited the tombs of the people he claimed were his grandfathers in front of television cameras.
