The Party for Change in Turkey, or TDP (Turkish: Türkiye Değişim Partisi), was a Turkish political movement originally started and founded in 2009, transforming into a political party in 2020 under the leadership of Mustafa Sarıgül.
After a period in the DSP,[9] Sarıgül established the TDH (Türkiye Değişim Hareketi/Movement for Change in Turkey) to challenge the domination of the Turkish centre-left by the CHP,[10] whose leader Deniz Baykal had withstood a leadership challenge by Sarıgül in 2005.[11]
Party leader Sarıgül announced that they would support the CHP and Kılıçdaroğlu in the 2023 general elections. In response, the CHP made Sarıgül a candidate for the parliament from the Erzincan electoral district. Party leader Mustafa Sarıgül announced that they were merging with the CHP on 8 June 2023.[12]
