AKP's Tayyar makes 'We will continue to cause discomfort' statement

Former AKP MP Şamil Tayyar made notable statements regarding the criticisms made about him. While emphasizing that his posts reflect only his own views, Tayyar drew attention to the sharp polarization in politics.

"I AM NOT IN ACTIVE POLITICS"

In his assessment, Tayyar drew attention with the words: "For a long time, while evaluating events with a journalistic reflex, I have been trying to stay away from a rude and hurtful tone. I am not in active politics, I have no representative duty, I am sharing my personal opinions. My analyses only bind me. However, this path is like walking on a minefield in an environment where sharp polarization is experienced. Sometimes I become the target of sycophants and bootlickers in our own neighborhood, and sometimes I am subjected to the insults of incompetent, ambitious people, contractor commentators, and turncoats in the opposition."

"THEY ARE PRODUCING CONSPIRACY THEORIES"

Maintaining his stance against the criticisms, Tayyar stated, "When it suits them, they look for miracles in my posts; when it doesn't, they call me a 'peasant', 'riffraff', or 'disreputable' and comment for hours. They even produce conspiracy theories from a tweet I deleted. Am I bothered? No, I see that I am on the right path. What matters is not the role politics assigns to you, but the conscience of society and your place in its heart. For that reason, we will continue to cause discomfort to the environment and be the voice of society."

Collective response.

For a long time, while evaluating events with a journalistic reflex, I have been trying to stay away from a rude and hurtful tone.

I am not in active politics, I have no representative duty, I am sharing my personal opinions.

My analyses only bind me.

However, this path is like walking on a minefield in an environment where sharp polarization is experienced…
