Özdağ to Soylu: Do you think I don't know what is being stored in the cold storage in Mamak?

Victory Party Chairman Ümit Özdağ shared a section of former MHP Deputy Nazif Okumuş's claims about Syrians on his social media account and targeted former Interior Minister Süleyman Soylu.

VERY STRONG WORDS FOR SOYLU

Özdağ, who said, "History will record you as the man who allowed his country to be occupied," continued his post by asking Soylu, "Do you think I don't know what is being kept in the cold storage in Mamak?"

WHAT DID NAZİF OKUMUŞ SAY?

Former MHP Deputy Nazif Okumuş had made very important claims during a live broadcast he attended earlier. Okumuş stated, "Süleyman Soylu has significant bargaining power when he meets with the President on the political stage. He is strong. I can express this quite clearly and assertively, and I can even prove it with witnesses. Süleyman Soylu says, 'Despite everything in the last general election, I played the most important role in the President's election. I granted citizenship to at least 2.5 to 3 million Syrians.' This number is quite large and not plausible.

"SYRIANS WERE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO CHANGE THEIR NAMES"

In the past, those accepted as citizens of the Republic of Turkey were announced in the Official Gazette. However, this practice was abolished during Soylu's term, and the names of new citizens are no longer published in the Official Gazette. Additionally, Syrians who obtained citizenship were given the opportunity to change their names if they wished. They were told, 'You can choose names commonly used in Turkey.' During this process, they are adopting names like Ahmet, Mehmet, Hasan, Hüseyin, Ayşe, and Fatma, which are widely used in Turkey. They were changing their names online.
