Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, Chairman of the Republican People’s Party, responded to President Erdoğan, who called the double earthquake, in which more than 35 thousand people died, “the disaster of the century”: The disaster of the century for this country is the one-man regime. To put it bluntly, he is Erdogan.
CHP Chairman Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu made a press statement at his party’s headquarters on the 10th day of the earthquake. Kılıçdaroğlu said, “They were late at the most critical hours, our people froze to death, the blood of our citizens is in the hands of the government.”
I walked every inch of the earthquake zone. I can’t forget what I saw. It is impossible to sleep at night. My feelings are mixed. “Where is the state?” I heard people shouting. It is not erased from my ears.
I have seen children left without a family, I have seen mothers who have lost a child. I cried with the fathers. I listened to the cries of helpless women who heard the voices of their loved ones under the rubble.
BEtrayal of the century, incompetence of the century
They were never coordinated. While our people were dying, they made a special effort to see how we could move this to the political base. The disaster of the century for this country is the one-man regime. To put it bluntly, he is Erdogan. With his incompetence, we were looking for the previous disaster. It is the betrayal of the century, the ignorance of the century, the incompetence of the century.
What cowardice it is to be afraid of one’s own soldier. Soldier is experienced in this matter. They had the capacity to sort things out in the first 12 hours, but kept the military on hold. They lost their mental faculties that they didn’t already have.
I SAY CLEARLY ELECTIONS WILL BE MADE ON TIME
All coordinated was social media. They imposed a ban on social media, aggravated it. Young people asking questions detained journalists and scientists. They instructed the news channels to ease the liability. They pulled microphones in front of our citizens. I’m telling you openly and clearly, the elections will be held on time. The constitution is very clear, elections cannot be postponed in case of disaster.
