“WE ARE ALL INDIVIDUALIZING”

“Why do we care about family values?” Göktaş asked, emphasizing that societies, states and nations that draw strength from the family are more resilient and stronger.

“Now, we have declared the period 2026-2035 as the ‘Decade of Family and Population’ with the directives of our President. So why did we feel the need to declare this?” Minister Göktaş said:

“Our population is getting older. As you know, family values are actually very important in these geographies. It is very valuable to take care of the elders, to look after the little ones as blessings, to eat as a family, to share as a family, but now our values are changing. We all have a phone in our hands, a technology in our hands. We are all becoming lonely, individualized, and in fact, loneliness is always starting to be presented to us as a beauty both on social media and in traditional channels. The number of people living alone is increasing. Our age at marriage is being postponed and we are having children late, our number of children is increasing.” “It is decreasing. Therefore, we are getting older as a country. Our population is getting older. The whole world is getting older.”

Stating that they declared the “Decade of Family and Population” in order to protect family values, Göktaş said, “We stand by our young people between the ages of 18 and 29, who want to start a family. Our state offers a loan support of 250 thousand liras to our young people between the ages of 18-25, with a 2-year grace period and a 4-year maturity. Well, let’s say this couple has a child, we write off their loan for one year and it is postponed for another 12 months. “When they have two children, we donate the entire loan within 4 or 5 years. Our President announced this last month. We have married 80 thousand couples so far within the scope of this loan. We have had 11,600 babies in one year.” he said.

“OUR YOUTH ARE VERY HAPPY WITH THIS SUPPORT”

Stating that they offer 200 thousand liras of support to young people between the ages of 26 and 29, Göktaş said, “Who gets married with 200-250 thousand liras?” We receive criticism from time to time, but our young people are very happy with this support. ‘Our state is with you in every aspect of your life.’ We emphasize the message very clearly. “We support our young people who want to get married, we provide them with education before they get married, and we support them when they have children.” he said.

Emphasizing that they provide regular support to 38 thousand 702 mothers every month in Diyarbakır, Göktaş said that they have made payments to 1 million 50 thousand 401 mothers who gave birth in just one year throughout Turkey.

“WE PAID 828 MILLION LIRA TO DIYARBAKIR”

Stating that there are 26 thousand 410 mothers benefiting from regular payments in Diyarbakır, Göktaş said, “In this context, we paid 828 million liras to Diyarbakır within the scope of birth aid alone. In Turkey, 18 billion liras are paid only for the support we provide to newborn babies in one year. Of course, we are taking such steps in order to raise awareness of the ‘Family Year’ and to further strengthen the strong steps between families. We want to spread this awareness throughout Turkey.” We want it.” he said.

Göktaş concluded his words as follows:

“What did we say in the past? Our elders are the crown of our heads, children are the blessing of our home, in fact, it still is. Turkish nation, Turkish youth, we are a nation that still believes in babies, marriage and children. We will continue to take determined steps to protect these values, our population, our young and dynamic population structure. Today, this festival is a very valuable step for us to raise awareness. At the same time, we brought together our families who benefit from the services of our Ministry. In fact, the most beautiful face of this house, this conversation We have children. We are proud of all of you. Under the leadership of our President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, we will continue to stand by our families, strengthen our children, and say ‘Strong family, strong Turkey’. Hopefully, these beautiful children will continue to build the Turkey of tomorrow.

“FAMILY IS THE AGE OF HUMAN HISTORY, THE MOST ANCIENT, AND WITHOUT DOUBT THE MOST IMPORTANT STRUCTURE”

Governor Murat Zorluoğlu also said that the family institution has existed in different forms in all civilizations throughout history, but has been at the center of the social order in every period.

Pointing out that the family plays an important role in ensuring social order and transferring values, Zorluoğlu said, “Family is the most ancient, most widespread and undoubtedly the most important structure among social institutions, as old as human history. The family institution has existed in various forms in different civilizations and cultures throughout history, but has maintained its feature of being one of the indispensable elements of the social structure in every period.” he said.

Emphasizing that family in Anatolia means patience, labor and loyalty, Zorluoğlu said, “In Anatolia, family means patience, labor and loyalty. It means growing the joy in good times and sharing the burden in difficult times. It is the most precious bond that brings together mother’s prayer, father’s advice, the experience of elders and the joy of children at the same table.” he said.

AK Party Diyarbakır Deputy Suna Kepolu Ataman also emphasized that family is a very strong social value in the region.

The crisis in CHP following the absolute nullity decision is deepening day by day. The tension between Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu and Özgür Özel, who returned to the Chairman’s seat, reached its peak with the “expulsion” move. CHP Spokesperson Müslim Sarı made statements regarding the process in the party.

“THERE IS NO SUCH TITLE ON OUR AGENDA”

Responding to the expulsion allegations of Özgür Özel and Ekrem İmamoğlu, Müslim Sarı said, “We did not discuss expulsions in our meeting. Such a topic is not on our agenda at the moment.”

“AS WE EXTENDED OUR HANDS, THEIR FRIENDS SHOCKED FISTS”

CHP Spokesperson Müslim Sarı’s statements are as follows:

“We have been going through a process since May 21, we, as friends who carry out the compulsory and legal process, wanted to find a middle ground, talk and create a dialogue mechanism within the current legal order but including our own political approaches, by exercising the collective mind without excluding our other friends.

We wanted to establish a dialogue committee. We made a decision on this issue at MYK. There were well-intentioned initiatives. Our brothers and 3 mayors working in our party wanted to find a middle ground. However, these attempts did not yield positive results. Even though we kept the door to dialogue open, our friends clenched their fists as we extended our hands. This is a difficult process for us. We made good faith efforts. We reached a point where we were exhausted and a kind of two-headedness emerged in the party.

“WE RECOMMEND CHP TO RESOLVE CONFLICTS WITHIN THE PARTY THEMSELVES”
In response to a press member’s question regarding the developments in the CHP, Kurtulmuş said, “We hope and recommend that the corporate identity of the CHP continues in integrity and that they somehow resolve these conflicts and conflicts among themselves. As the Presidency of the Grand National Assembly of Turkey, we make decisions within the framework of the internal regulations of the parties and the internal directives of the party Parliamentary groups. In other words, it is never possible for the Grand National Assembly of Turkey to take sides in the internal disputes of any party.”
Underlining that the Turkish Grand National Assembly will never be a party to the discussions within the CHP, Kurtulmuş said, “In order for the healthy functioning of Turkey’s democracy, I recommend and hope that the CHP leaves these discussions behind as soon as possible and establishes the institutional identity of the party in the best possible way through the agreements they will create among themselves.”

“THE GNAT IS NOT THE AUTHORITY TO RESOLVE THIS DISCUSSION”
When CHP Chairman Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu asked whether CHP Group Chairman Özgür Özel had a request to vacate the office room in the Parliament and allocate it to himself, Kurtulmuş said, “These are all details in the big picture. The Parliament Presidency will take the necessary steps when the time comes. No one should doubt this. If there is a contradiction, if there is a debate, the party to the discussion, the side of the contradiction, or the authority that will resolve this debate is not the Grand National Assembly of Turkey.”

TERRORIST-FREE Türkiye PROCESS
Regarding the ‘Terror-Free Turkey’ process and the report prepared by the National Solidarity, Fraternity and Democracy Commission in this context, Kurtulmuş said, “The Commission report is a road map. Especially the sixth and seventh articles of this joint memorandum text are concrete proposals put forward to determine the road map. The requirements of these articles must be fulfilled. In parallel with the determination that the terrorist organization, which is defined as the critical threshold, has laid down its weapons and it is understood that the organization has completely dissolved itself, the necessary legal regulations must be made in the Parliament. “I believe that this process should be accelerated,” he said.
