Against the Turkish lira, it will gain value by 29.5 percent in 2023. The interest rate is currently 10.5 percent, the signage rate. The deaf sultan heard that it will decrease to 9 percent in November. It will be kept like this for the whole next year. In this case, from Currency Protected Deposit, Treasury And the burden on the Central Bank is 20.5 points. In other words, if the current 1 trillion 400 billion TL Currency Protected Deposit stock never increases, the burden on the public is 296 billion TL. Of this, 142 billion TL is on the Treasury’s back, and the rest is on the Central Bank’s back. “How much is the appropriation allocated by the Treasury? Only 25 billion liras. That is one-sixth of the possible burden at the moment. This is enough to show how disconnected, inconsistent and insincere the 2023 budget is from reality.” Stating that the economy has never been more vulnerable to any adverse wave, Öztrak said, “The economic staffs of the six parties that came together at the nation’s table, together write the recipe for the program that will pull Turkey out of this pit, as they have done in many previous crises.

“Togg is a private sector initiative that makes us all proud”

CHP Spokesperson Faik Öztrak answered questions from members of the press after his statement. “CHP Chairman Kılıçdaroğlu made a statement regarding his candidacy for President. Are these statements a candidacy signal?” Öztrak answered the question, “In fact, Erdoğan was the first to make this comment. We understand Erdoğan’s fear and fuss, but he will be a little more patient. He will hear the name of the 13th president from the mouths of six general presidents at the same time as our nation.” gave the answer. Faik Öztrak, “President Erdogan called for a referendum on the constitutional study on the headscarf. What is your assessment?” On the question, “What referendum? It is clear that we have given a law proposal. If women are willing to take their hands off their clothing, they should support our law proposal if they are not chasing other accounts. They should not tire our nation with the referendum.” he said. When CHP Chairman Kılıçdaroğlu and IYI Party Chairman Meral Akşener were invited to the ceremony to be held on October 29 for Togg, Öztrak replied: It is a private sector initiative that set out at the right time and makes us all proud. We have said before that we support any project that is done right and managed well. Had this invitation come from the company management, we would gladly attend, and we would applaud the first vehicle to come off the mass production line, but Erdoğan and his company The initiative’s special day is in an effort to turn the project into a political show. The fact that the invitation came from the palace and the ministry acted as if it were a corporate unit of a private company is nothing but an effort to politicize this exemplary project. For these reasons, our President will not attend the invitation, but at the earliest. We announce to the public that he will visit Togg on site in a short time, and we wish Togg a successful launch.”
