The tension between the Minister of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change, Murat Kurum, and the CHP Chairman, Özgür Özel, has escalated to a new level with mutual salvos. Responding to Özgür Özel's claims at the Yalova rally with a barrage of posts on social media, Minister Kurum argued that the opposition's vision cannot keep up with the achievements of the AK Party. Kurum criticized Özel with the words, "Your mind is blown because we are producing works that you couldn't even dream of."
The Minister of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change, Murat Kurum, responded very harshly on social media to the statements made by CHP Chairman Özgür Özel at the Yalova rally. Kurum, reacting to Özel's criticisms directed at him, used striking expressions, arguing that the CHP has fallen behind in service politics.
"SAYING THE SAME THINGS LIKE A BROKEN RECORD"
Minister Kurum criticized Özgür Özel for constantly targeting him in his social media posts. Comparing the CHP leader's statements to a "broken record," Kurum said, "Not only can the CHP not produce works, but it can no longer produce words either. Özgür Özel is saying 'Murat Kurum and Murat Kurum' everywhere like a broken record."
"I KNOW YOUR TROUBLE"
Minister Kurum claimed that the criticisms from Özgür Özel were rooted in the projects being carried out in the earthquake zone. Suggesting that the ongoing works disturbed the opposition, Kurum stated, "I know your trouble. Your trouble is the 455 thousand houses we are building in the earthquake zone."
"500 THOUSAND HOUSES DRIVE YOU CRAZY"
Minister Kurum, asserting that the government's large housing projects have caused concern in the opposition camp, concluded his message with these harsh words: "Your trouble is the 500 thousand social houses we will build for our people. You are going crazy because we are producing works that you can't even dream of."
