Referring to the growing poverty of Turkish citizens and the collection of discarded fruits and vegetables by the Turkish people, a Turkish media outlet wrote that the Turkish people are suffering from poverty and trying to make a living in the midst of staggering inflation.
In the midst of staggering inflation, Turkish people living in poverty are struggling to make ends meet, and some are collecting vegetables and fruits thrown away by vendors in markets, the Dovar website reported.
The website cited a Turkish citizen requesting permission from a shopkeeper to collect discarded tomatoes. “No one has money,” said the Turkish citizen, who did not want to be named. May God help those who are in a worse situation. I had 100 lira, but I could not buy everything I needed. If we buy fruit, we can not buy vegetables. If we buy vegetables, we can not buy fruits. What to do with three or four children? »
The website was about another Turkish citizen trying to find edible fruits and vegetables among the products discarded by the sellers, and the Turkish lady also said, “I have no money, I can not buy fruits and vegetables.” I collect them from the ground. What else should I do?
The Turkish website on Saturday also noted the inefficiency of the Turkish government and the ruling party and wrote that the Turkish president and his supporters were happy with the appreciation of the Turkish lira against the dollar two days ago, however, reports show that this happiness Is out of place. Not only has there been a currency crisis, but the ruling Justice and Development Party has made the Turkish people poorer over the past two decades.
In his speech, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan claimed that his government would make the country one of the top 10 economies in the world. The remarks came as the country faced sharp inflation and a weakening Turkish lira against the dollar in the economic crisis this year.
