“IT IS REQUIRED TO BE A MEMBER OF THE POWER PARTY TO FIND A JOB”
Karamollaoğlu stated that one of the saddest pictures in our country is to become a member of the ruling party in order to be able to participate in employment today, and said, “Such a country cannot stand up. A decent business cannot be done in such a country. There can be no talk of justice in such a country.” Karamollaoğlu stated that the economic indicators brought to light the negativities experienced, and added, “Even though the government does not accept it or ignores the problem of living, the official figures of the state are in the middle. Today, 4,5 million families in our country aid is being given, and this number has more than doubled in the last few years. This means that millions of people in our country are unable to feed themselves, let alone make a living."
"IF YOU CAN, REMOVE THE INTEREST AS A REAL MAN LIKE ERBAKAN"
Referring to President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan's statements about interest, which is the black hole of the country's economy, Karamollaoğlu said, "Mr. President, said years ago, ‘interest is the reality of the world’. Now, he says, ‘How is it, I won't raise interest rates’. However, with the new system established, the name of the interest is changed and more interest is charged than before. If you are going to fight against interest, come out to foreground like Erbakan Hodja, remove interest bravely.” Also criticizing the foreign policy understanding of the government, “While the government is running for Ukraine, it does not even turn a hair to end the blood and tears in the Islamic geography. We do not criticize striving for peace. However, he did not show this effort for Islamic countries, we oppose a foreign policy under the influence of other countries,” Karamollaoğlu added.
“ACCELERATE THE ELECTION STUDIES”
Continuing his words by making evaluations about the work of the organization, Karamollaoğlu stated that they are faced with a ball of problems waiting to be solved in many areas from economy to education, from foreign policy to justice, and that the government has closed its eyes and ears to this situation. Calling the district presidents to be prepared for the election, Karamollaoğlu said, “Explain the problems experienced with all their aspects. Show why these problems cannot be solved, where they went wrong. Explain to the public that the solution to these problems will take place under the Saadet government.” Karamollaoğlu, who stated that women's commissions also had great duties in this process, noted that they attach great importance to women's commissions as a party. Karamollaoğlu added, “Recently, the work in our women's commissions pleases me. Hopefully, in our party work I want women to be more active. Because women make up half of the population. If they come together, they change all the equations.”
