President Erdoğan: We should follow the right paths to enhance our economy and boost our prosperity
President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan made a speech at the 10th Economic Forum of the Union of Chambers and Commodity Exchanges of Turkey (TOBB).
Underlining that people who besmirch and belittle their own civilization and culture cannot contribute to the future of their countries, President Erdoğan stressed that the biggest problem Turkey faces is not the powers that it competes with abroad, but the incompetents at home who “have always acted under the shadow and command of others since they don’t know and believe in the strength of their own country or trust in the their own people.”
President Erdoğan also noted: “We should seek to grow our revenues by expanding our businesses rather than by resorting to price increases that cannot be explained by foreign exchange or interest rates. We should follow the right paths to enhance our economy and boost our prosperity. We stand by our businesspeople, but stand against speculators.”
“WE WILL NOT ALLOW ANYONE TO MAKE TURKEY PAY NEW PRICES”
“Turkey proved its resolve in its Syrian policy with operations Euphrates Shield and Olive Branch as well as with the initiative it took in Idlib. We have explored, and continue to explore, every avenue for a peaceful solution to the problem in Manbij and in the east of Euphrates,” said President Erdoğan, and noted: “Turkey has paid many prices since the promises made to it have not been kept in Syria. We will not allow anyone to make Turkey pay new prices. If there is a price to be paid, the terrorist organizations, which target Turkey, and their supporters will pay it.”
