GOOD (İyi) Party Weekly Group Meeting was held in the Grand National Assembly of Turkey (TBMM). İyi Party Chairwoman Meral Akşener made harsh criticisms of the government and blamed it on the economy. Regarding the dismissal of the Central Bank vice-presidents by a decree issued at night, she pointed to the early elections by saying "Central Bank presidents became seasonal workers".
"FARMER, TRADESMEN AND RETIREES DEVASTATED"
Referring to the fluctuation in the exchange rate, Akşener emphasized that interest and inflation peaked and the dollar rushed to 10 TL. Aksener, "You know, 3 years ago, Mr. Erdogan, almost; he made a promise to us by saying, 'Give the authority, see the effect'. What was that word? He was going to show us how to fight interest, inflation, dollars, right? As a matter of fact, in our country today; The state's banks are under his jurisdiction, the vast majority of the media is under his control. Treasury, finance, again under his authority. Even the Central Bank, which should be independent, is under its jurisdiction. So he has all the powers. What about the effect? The effect is obvious… Unemployment has taken its toll. Farmers, tradesmen, retirees, everyone is miserable," she said.
“SIT TO THE TABLE WITH ASSAD!”
Akşener, criticizing the Syrian policy of the government, "If you are going to pay Putin 2 and a half billion dollars every two years to stay in Afrin; They call you a tenant, not a landlord. A Syria that maintains its territorial integrity is in Turkey's favor. Therefore, either sit down with Assad and help the Damascus government establish sovereignty; or, take the necessary measures as soon as possible to protect our soldiers in the region. But don't worry about paying that tribute to Putin to save the day and distract the public. Otherwise, you will find us in front of you to demand an account of the labor of our nation and the future of our children," she added.
