"LET EVERYONE SAY 'WELL DONE'"
Noting that the return of the Audi A8 brand vehicle was a 'beneficial' step, albeit late, Hakan wrote: "From now on, we expect a performance from you regarding the 'use of state property' that will deeply impress everyone, whether they are believers or not. Appear before society in such a way that... Everyone, but everyone, says 'Well done to the Diyanet Affairs President.' Let everyone envy you.".
