Turkish public opinion has been shocked by the devaluation of the lira as broadcast by Manolis Kostidis. It is indicative that the dollar reached 30 lira, when in 2019 it did not exceed five… “We are getting poorer with the devaluation of the lira” comments the Turkish media.

Many Turks now remember what the Turkish president declared a few years ago.

“In their view the dollar will reach 10 pounds and inflation will exceed 30%. What became of all this? nothing” was celebrating Recep Tayyip Erdogan in 2019.

“Some people said the dollar would go to 15 pounds, and they tried to buy it for 5 pounds… this did not happenErdoÄŸan’s son-in-law, then Finance Minister Berat Albayrak, also commented in 2019.

For his part, a FOX TV reporter emphasized: “this is a record. The dollar exceeded 30 pounds For the first time in the exchanges we see 30.4 pounds to the dollar, while the euro reached 33.4 pounds. With their wrong policies, the exchange rate reached these levels, and thus the purchasing power of the civil servant decreased, the purchasing power of the pensioner, the worker, the policeman, the military decreased. Life thus became expensive and everything is taken from your pocket.”
