Akar’s provocative response to his followers when they asked him to shoot

Tried to rebuild without success.

The reason for the uproar in Turkey was the provocative response of Defense Minister Hulusi Akar, who will also be a candidate for parliament.

Specifically, Hulusi Akar was speaking at the pre-election event of the ruling party, the Justice and Development Party. At one time his followers began to chant some slogans: “Tell us to shoot and we will shoot!” Tell us to die, so we die!

The Turkish Minister of Defense initiated and responded to his followers: Wait… the time will come. I am waiting…”

Akar talks about the misinterpretation of his remarks

Naturally, these statements caused fear and strong reactions in the ranks of the opposition, after the shooting incident at the offices of the Good Party (Aye Party) of Meral Aksener and the armed attack that was received by the regional central office of the CHP. By Erdogan’s main rival in the May 14 elections, Kemal Kilicdaroglu.

“What do you mean; who are you going to shoot? What are you bringing?” opposition officials asked, addressing Akar.

Turkey’s defense minister tried to make amends, saying his “statements were misinterpreted,” but such words certainly sparked concern after the recent attacks.
