The leader of the DEVA Party, Ali Babacan, took out a double wallet from his pocket during a live broadcast he attended. Expressing that this is a family tradition, Babacan said, "We managed the state with the same double wallet mentality. So that this country never faces a crisis again and our citizens never become poor again, everything went well. Right now, there is neither a double wallet nor any precaution in the state."
DEVA Party Chairman Ali Babacan had a striking conversation with the host Özlem Gürses on the Para Politika program on SÖZCÜ TV.
HE PULLED OUT A DOUBLE WALLET DURING THE BROADCAST
During the live broadcast, Babacan pulled out a double wallet from his pocket and said, "This is a family tradition for us. We managed the state with the logic of a double wallet."
Babacan stated, "I hope this country never sees a crisis again, and our citizens never become poorer again. That's why everything is going well. Right now, the state has neither a double wallet nor any reserves."
"THERE'S NO PROGRESS ON MINIMUM WAGE"
Making evaluations about the economy, Babacan said: "There is no progress on the minimum wage. The pensioners are being robbed from the minimum wage earners. It's shameful! Creating inflation is the biggest theft, and failing to compensate for the suffering and poverty caused by inflation is compounded theft."
"THEY ALWAYS INCREASE PRICES ON JULY 1 AND JANUARY 1"
Just yesterday, they increased natural gas prices by 24.6%. They wait, they wait, be careful, they always make price increases on July 1 and January 1. Why? They do it so that it doesn't get included in the previous period's inflation. The inflation for December comes out at 1%, and the inflation for January comes out at 5%. Why? Because we can rob that 4%. We rob from pensioners and minimum wage earners. It's shameful! It's shameful!"
