Selling tents to earthquake victims who were left on the streets during the big earthquakes Turkey experienced in February, and delivering aid late. Red Crescent’at the head of the said period Kerem Kinikfrom social media account CHP leader Kemal KılıçdaroğluHe targeted.
Kınık, who left office hours after AKP President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said “I’m sorry” about what happened, claimed that Kılıçdaroğlu’s election campaign ‘distorted the facts’ after the Nation Alliance fell behind in the presidential elections.
The aforementioned sharing of Kınık is as follows:
“Yes, Mr. Kemal,
I can understand your situation, you are in real trouble.
In your campaign, you distorted the facts by saying that we sell blood and tents to the victims. However, during your SGK General Directorate, you made the current blood application. You knew very well that Kızılay did not sell anything to the victims. You knew very well that those responsible for the 99 Marmara earthquake, who shared your mentality and said that if you win, you would hand over the Red Crescent to them again, could not even supply 90,000 tents, but that we set up 900,000 tents on the field in this earthquake.
Most of the disaster survivors knew this, and those people who experienced great pain did not allow you to slander the activities that will go down in the history of world disaster response as a self-sacrificing and successful mobilization effort, and gave you the necessary answers at the ballot box. Hundreds of CHP voters and donors, volunteers, employees, beneficiaries and hundreds of thousands of Red Crescent who reached me and knew the truth, shared their resentment, anger and the answers they would give at the ballot box because of the unfair attacks you made against us.
Now, it would not be appropriate for me to make the calls and attacks you made on me, and it is not my duty. But if you are sincere, you should say goodbye to the Red Crescent and apologize to the Red Crescent community.”
Yes, Mr. Kemal,
I can understand your situation, you are in real trouble.
In your campaign, you distorted the facts by saying that we sell blood and tents to the victims. However, during your SGK General Directorate, you made the current blood application. Kızılay does nothing for the victims… pic.twitter.com/AiiWKGGCEp
