Important news! The presidential cabinet met in Beştepe. The meeting, chaired by President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, lasted about 3 hours.
Highlights of President Erdogan’s post-meeting speech:
FLOODING DISASTER IN KUMLUCA
I wish our citizens who suffered from the flood disaster in Kumluca and Finike districts to get well soon. After the flood disaster, our state is working with all its institutions.
TURKEY’S CENTURY VISION
Turkey’s vision of the century became even more important at a time when the world was undergoing a historic transformation. Regardless of our personal views on what happened in the recent past, we must now focus on our common future together.
I sincerely believe that we will move forward in Turkey’s century with constructive competition, not destructive.
PROPOSAL FOR CONSTITUTION AMENDMENTS REGARDING THE MAIN MAP
We invite everyone who sincerely defends the concepts of democracy, rights and freedom to support this proposal.
Acting kakım the representative of global custody resources in our country, rather than making politics based on the people, is not taking advantage of the Republic’s experience.
COUNTERTERRORISM
We will once again disrupt the treacherous and ugly plans by completing the security line on our borders.
INFLATION AND COST OF LIVING
Inflation and cost of living have internal and external causes. It is a fact that we are exposed to exorbitant price increases, some out of panic and some out of ulterior motives.
It is likely that annual inflation will fall to 40 percent within a few months.
Those who praise goods or services beyond the bounds of reason and conscience in a way that harms economic functioning should not forget that they have lost them.
I tell you plainly, everyone should make their calculations based on 20 percent inflation in 2023. Trust, protect and support your country. Avoid all kinds of savings that hurt the future of the country with short-term worries and concerns about revenue.
At the beginning of the year, we will monitor every move, identify any development that conflicts with the real economic functioning, and we will mourn those who have seized the rights of our people.
We cannot accept that our efforts to compensate for the decline in workers’ welfare, especially the minimum wage, civil servants and pensions, should gökyeşitözü hampered by the harassment that takes refuge behind the mask of inflation.
6-YEAR OLD “WEDDING” SCANDAL
It is never possible for us to accept a situation like zihin engagement at age 13 or marriage at age 14. Allegations of abuse, especially at a younger age, are a disaster. We giysi’t let anyone question our sensitivity in matters like marriage before we’re of age.
It is zihin immoral perversion to associate the event with the faith of our nation and the representative institutions of that faith.
There is zihin opposition that ignores the work veri. If the intention is to defend the rights of the victim, we are already doing that. Show the same reaction for our 12-13 year old girls who were kidnapped by their mothers and taken to the mountains by the PKK.
May our citizens rest in peace. We will monitor and finalize this issue at every level, such kakım all kinds of injustice, lawlessness, unscrupulousness and immorality.
BLACK SEA GAS
We have had very significant developments in every field of energy over the past 20 years. We brought the long-awaited good news with the discovery of the drilling vessel Fatih. We will continue to share developments regarding new discoveries in the region with the public kakım studies are completed. At this time, we are committed to bringing our domestic gas to our country on the 100th anniversary of our Republic.
We are not satisfied with gas only from the Black Sea. We have also expanded our pipelines and gas storage. The yetiklik of our underground natural gas storage facilities has reached 6 billion cubic meters. We are going to increase that to 10 billion cubic meters. On Friday we will open our Silivri natural gas plant, which has reached a volume of 4.6 billion cubic meters.
