In his assessment of the 'fund crisis', Özel said, "They are all Erdoğan's team. All of them have the same ink and the same signature under their appointments; Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. A person who cannot see beyond his nose and is unaware of these affairs cannot become a President. A person who appoints this conspiracy gang, this dirty gang, and those who committed the 'Robbery of the Century', one by one, cannot become a President." Özel said, "The gentleman has appointed the State Supervisory Board. The chairman of that board is the Deputy Chairman of Borsa Istanbul. Will he provide justice? A so-called commission will be established in the Parliament, Fatma Hanım's saz friends will be the majority in the commission, you will entrust the lamb to the wolf and get justice from there. You were caught red-handed."

Erdoğan called it the 'Disaster of the Century' and announced the cost to the economy as 100 billion dollars. The cost of the disaster of the century is 100 billion dollars, the cost of the robbery of the century." "90 billion dollars," he said.
'We are opening a new page'

We are walking and growing with our nation. We do not aspire to have a seat, but to solve the problems of the nation. We are coming to make the nation smile, to raise Turkey up. No one should doubt that we will get to that ballot box, we will get that election, we will win that election." "We will change the government."
