Breaking news... AKP Spokesperson Ömer Çelik: 'We are going against the fund demons'

AKP Spokesperson Ömer Çelik made statements regarding the agenda after the meeting of his party's Central Decision and Executive Board (MKYK).

Referring to the fund investigation, Çelik stated that all state institutions continue to work to eliminate grievances and punish those responsible.

Making evaluations regarding the fund investigation, Ömer Çelik claimed that the process was carried out with determination in line with the will of Erdoğan. Emphasizing that legitimate investors should be separated from those who are alleged to be involved in fund fraud, Çelik stated that evaluations that could harm the capital markets and the Turkish economy should be avoided. Çelik said, "We will not convict or have anyone convicted through any political lynching campaign. But we will not allow any allegation to be covered up with any political patronage."

Stating that the main goal of the investigation is to reveal all the facts, Çelik noted that judicial and financial institutions are on duty to protect the victimized citizens and to recover the lost money.

Çelik said, "Work is progressing rapidly with the will of our President on the fund issue. We are acting decisively and uncompromisingly with a high will to crack down on those who commit these corruptions, which we call fund fraudsters and fund devils. Of course, we carefully distinguish between these fund devils, fund fraudsters, and the legitimate investors, and our citizens who use these funds as a legitimate investment tool. While these issues are being discussed, Türkiye is correct in certain approaches and evaluations that will harm the capital markets and harm the Turkish economy." "We state that it is not," he said.

Referring to the death of Üsküdar Deputy Mayor Dündar Ziya Gültekin at the press conference, Çelik condemned the hate speeches made on social media following the news of his death.

Announcing Kani Torun's participation in the party, Çelik said, "Today, our MP Kani Torun Bey, with whom we have been companions before, came to our party again and joined. We say 'welcome to our home' to him."

Stating that they are sensitive about the fair, transparent and effective conduct of the liquidation process of some investment funds decided to be liquidated by the capital market board, Çelik stated that the law proposed in this context was accepted by the Planning Budget Commission and will be discussed this week. Çelik said, "Work continues on a draft that envisages permanent and comprehensive changes in the capital market law."

Referring to the developments in Iraq, Çelik stated that they considered the election of the President of the Iraqi Turkmen Front, Muhammed Seman Ağa, to the post of minister of state in the Iraqi government as an extremely positive step.
