Director of Communications Burhanettin Duran, in his post on his social media account, emphasized that we are in a period where content spreads very quickly and that this speed brings with it a great danger.

“LET’S RAISE THE VOICE OF TRUTH TOGETHER”

Stating that this danger is ‘disinformation’, Duran said:

“Let’s not forget that not every claim we come across is true, not every post is real. Our strongest shield against this danger, especially in the digital world, is our individual awareness and habit of questioning. In our fight for truth, we need to defend our cyber homeland together and say ‘stop’ to disinformation. I invite you to carefully watch and spread this public service announcement that we have prepared to raise awareness against disinformation. Let’s raise the voice of truth together.”

We are in a time where content spreads very quickly. However, this speed also brings with it a great danger: “DISINFORMATION”

“BELIEVE IN TRUTH, NOT INTERACTION”

The following statements were included in the public service announcement:

“The content produced behind a screen crosses borders in seconds. A share and a lie that replaces the truth grows, spreads, and suddenly everyone talks about it. But not everything seen is the truth, not everything shared is the truth. Remember, disinformation becomes stronger if you believe it. Stop, think, question. Do not share without checking the source. Because the truth is not in the interaction, but in the truth. Believe in the truth, not in the interaction. Say ‘stop’ to disinformation.”

In the video post made on the social media account of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Minister Çiftçi’s message played on the gendarmerie radio was included.

The video also included moments when gendarmerie personnel on duty in various parts of the country listened to Çiftçi’s message over the radio.

“OUR GENDARMERIE IS THE GUARANTEE OF THE PEACE OF OUR NATION”
