Speaking at his party's group meeting, Future Party leader Ahmet Davutoğlu could not hold back his tears while discussing the fire in İzmir that resulted in the deaths of five children. Davutoğlu said, "We could not protect our children. Were we supposed to experience these things under the rule of those who bow their foreheads to the ground? When talking about the children in Gaza, how will we account for the loss of these five lives? I am devastated, I am ashamed."

Future Party Chairman Ahmet Davutoğlu referred to the five children who lost their lives in a fire caused by an electric heater tipping over in Selçuk, İzmir, during his party's group meeting.
"HOW WILL WE ACCOUNT FOR THESE 5 LIVES?"
While speaking at the podium about the issue, Davutoğlu, unable to hold back his tears, said, "We could not protect our children. Were we supposed to experience these things under the rule of those who bow their foreheads to the ground? I assure you, I am not saying this to criticize. I say this by looking in the mirror. I am devastated, I am ashamed. I am ashamed because we could not stop it. I am devastated because we could not prevent these corruptions. It seems we could not make them listen, we could not explain, we could not protect our children. What kind of thing is this? While talking about the children in Gaza, how will we account for these 5 lives?"
REFERENCE TO ÖZLEM ZENGİN
Continuing his statement, Davutoğlu referred to AK Party Group Deputy Chair Özlem Zengin's words, "You keep going around and tying everything to money. It should be appreciated that it has been visited 18 times," saying, "Sir, is money the issue? Madam, what does money mean? Have you ever seen children sleeping hungry? When was the last time you went to the slums? Did you talk to a mother living in a shanty with her 5 children and was there any money left?"
