Saadet Party Chairman Temel Karamollaoğlu underlines an important fact by saying "The day is the day of total mobilization".
 
TRUE; The day is indeed the day of total mobilization!
 
During this period, everyone should be very careful with the words that will come out of their mouth and unnecessary discussions should not be caused!
 
In particular, the spokespersons of the government should not engage in "unnecessary susceptibility"!
 
They should consider it normal to talk about the problems encountered while healing the earthquake wounds!
 
So they have to face the facts! Because today is also the day to face the facts.
 
On a day like this, any statement they make about defending their power may draw backlash.
 
The criticisms made by people who were badly burned by the earthquake should not be seen as an ordinary opposition.
 
Instead of being angry with them, he should try to understand them. Yes, disaster is a very big disaster! Of course, there may be some difficulties in dressing the wounds in such a great disaster.
 
But no one should have the right to expect people who left their relatives under the rubble in the earthquake to understand this or to accept it with understanding.
 
Instead of waiting for them to show understanding, they should be shown understanding and their criticism should be justified.
 
If the spokespersons of the opposition will pay attention to the words that will come out of their mouths, the spokespersons of the government should be much more careful than they are and should carefully avoid statements that will hurt the people in front of them.
 
At least they should stop emphasizing "how successful" their government is these days!
 
Okay, those in power may find themselves very successful despite the opposition's claims to the contrary.
 
But now is not the time to say it or announce it!
 
Undoubtedly, such matters cannot be talked about in the days of total mobilization.
 
The spokespersons of the government should understand the reactions from the hurt citizens and should not attempt to raise an answer. Nor should it be treated as an “election investor”.
 
You just have to face the facts and be patient.
