Last night, we witnessed an earthquake of 5.1 magnitude in Malatya. We can’t delay, we can’t delay. Currently 3 ministers and deputies are there. They continue their damage assessment studies with all their teams.
PROVOCATIVE SHARES IN SOCIAL MEDIA
First of all, this union really supports the barber, while we have citizens, and on the other hand, what kind of opportunity we can take from here, with the understanding that ‘it is the cause of political abuse’ and there is the problem of ‘people are in trouble’, what kind of possibilities we can use ‘they continue a smear campaign for this. There are some messages on the social media that drive people, they are very, very bad, lousy, immoral … For example, enough to say ‘what has this government done for earthquake in 20 years’? Do you have a chance to stop the earthquake?
I am very happy with that our institutions have had very serious abilities in the face of such events. Our Red Crescent is very successful in helping AFAD. We saw that AFAD had serious successes in the rescue incident. We saw that the gendarme had very serious successes. We saw that our Armed Forces were successful. These make us happy.
THE SITUATION IN LIBYA AND IDLIB
Hafter followed this process neither in Moscow nor in Berlin. Hafter is a putschist. I told Merkel, I said you are spoiling. There is Wagner with you. He continues all kinds of attacks due to his support. He will not be successful in this business. Unfortunately, the regime still continues its betrayal in the Idlib issue, killing civilians by bombing. ”
