Before the new legislative year, AK Party Mardin Deputy Faruk Kılıç, who answered the questions of Haberler.com in the garden of the Grand National Assembly of Turkey, gave important messages regarding inflation, interest rates, and investments. He said, "We expect one more year of patience from our citizens."

"THE NEW TERM IN THE GRAND NATIONAL ASSEMBLY WILL BE MORE RESPECTFUL"

AK Party Mardin Deputy Faruk Kılıç stated: "We expect this term to be one where ideas will be discussed. I believe it will be a period where deputies will show more respect towards each other. Our goal is one. All the political parties here aim for the future of our country, to leave a beautiful future for our children, and to leave a fully independent country in economic terms."

"WE NEED TO STAND TOGETHER AGAINST EXTERNAL THREATS"

"We have watched for days on live television as Israel recklessly and shamelessly carries out genocide right next to us. They did this in Gaza. Recently, we see that this is not just limited to Gaza. It has spread to Lebanon, Yemen, Syria, and we do not know which countries are next. In such an environment, we need to unite and stand together against external threats by ensuring our internal alliance. It is the duty of all our political parties and deputies to read this global context well and to take a step in parallel with it."

"THE ECONOMY WILL RECOVER STARTING FROM THE SECOND HALF OF 2025"

"Like everyone else, we acknowledge that an economic contraction is taking place. We experienced a pandemic. This was a period that affected the whole world, where global production chains were broken. Following that, the Ukraine-Russia war, and then the recklessness of Israel right next to us. We experienced a serious earthquake. Of course, there will be effects from this. We anticipated that an economic contraction could occur in the face of these challenges. We are working to eliminate this economic contraction, particularly in terms of reducing inflation. Inflation has started to decline. We expect our citizens to show a little more patience for 6 months to a year, especially as we anticipate a period starting from the second half of 2025 when inflation may decrease, interest rates may fall, and investments may increase."
