The Deputy Chairman of the AK Party, Faruk Acar, who is also the Head of Promotion and Media, announced his party's vote rate at the iftar program held at the Piramit Culture Center in Bahçelievler for communication faculty students. Acar stated, "The AK Party's vote rate has reached 36-37%. The CHP is in the 25-26 range. The trend is in our favor. Six months ago, the gap was narrower."
AK Party Deputy Chairman, Promotion and Media President Faruk Acar attended the iftar program organized by the Communication Platform for communication faculty students at the Bahçelievler Municipality Pyramid Culture Center.
Acar, who broke his fast with the youth, expressed his pleasure in meeting with students by sharing his experiences as part of the experience meetings.
"25 YEARS SOUND VERY EASY, BUT IT IS NOT EASY" Acar stated that Turkey is surrounded by a ring of fire, saying: "While there is a battlefield everywhere in the world, especially around the Middle East, thank God we do not have any problems in Turkey these days. We have a leader who provides and establishes this. A global leader. Currently, he is one of the two leaders in the world who has come to power through elections and democracy and is this experienced. One is Putin, the other is our President himself. 25 years sound very easy, but it is not easy. It is a great struggle, a great effort, and with a great vision, my Lord has granted him to come this far."
Acar, who mentioned that his daughter is also a student in the communication faculty, explained that he has an agency that consults for international brands, and that his wife is also a communicator, and that they are all active in the field of communication as a family.
Acar pointed out that Ramadan is experienced a bit differently this year compared to previous years, and continued: "The reason is that we are talking about an immoral deviation that has emerged with the Epstein issues in America. Sociologically, this has become a confrontation with the very issues that the West has always referred to in Islamic geographies, especially to Muslims, such as pedophilia and other immoral issues. Therefore, I can say that this has shown us that the way has been opened for a renewed affection towards Islam. A brother named Celal Karatüre emerged. This brother said, 'In the Kaaba, pilgrims say hu, Allah,' and here everyone will evolve to experience this feeling in a way that they will be fully aware of what I am talking about."
"PRESIDENT RECEP TAYYIP ERDOĞAN IS A LEADER WHO LOVES YOUNG PEOPLE VERY MUCH" AK Party Deputy Chairman Acar expressed that there is now an affection and interest in reading issues through belief and belief centers both in the world and in Turkey.
Acar noted that with the instructions they received from President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, they wanted to provide citizens with a meaningful Ramadan this year with a much higher level of energy, stating that they started this with their own party and illuminated everywhere.
Acar stated that traces of their activities can be found in various locations in Istanbul, emphasizing that women's and youth branches have also carried out various activities in this context.
Highlighting that President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan is a leader who loves young people very much, Acar continued his words: "Our President has always shown a privileged approach to young people as a political leader who comes from within the youth. Our general secretary, who represents the institutional structure of our party, is our previous youth branch president. He continues his position today as the Secretary General of the AK Party. The organization presidency, which we can consider to be the strongest in our party and to which we all belong, is currently held by our previous youth branch president. Now this should tell you something. Right now, our provincial president in Istanbul is someone who comes from the youth branches. Everyone you look around shows us a leadership that has clearly demonstrated its desire to meaningfully involve young people again in the game of our President."
"THE AK PARTY'S VOTE RATE HAS REACHED 36-37%" Acar pointed out that with the support of the youth, the interest in the AK Party among voters has increased, stating, "The AK Party's vote rate has reached 36-37%. The CHP is in the 25-26 range. The trend is in our favor. Six months ago, the gap was narrower. It is possible to explain the increase in the AK Party's votes with many factors."
Acar explained that they have programs in 961 neighborhoods in Istanbul, that they convey President Erdoğan's greetings, and that they are making every effort for the citizens.
Bahçelievler Mayor Hakan Bahadır also stated that communication is a concept that beautifies not only politics but also human relationships. Emphasizing that the important thing in communication is to be able to reach everyone's level, Bahadır noted that they are trying to achieve this as politicians.
Communication Platform President Yusuf Ziya Çataklı stated that as a platform, they organized iftars in Ankara and Istanbul last week, and that they carried out this event today as part of the experience meeting for students.
