Minister of Culture and Tourism Mehmet Nuri Ersoy, who is being held responsible by the opposition in particular for the hotel fire in Bolu Kartalkaya, claims he has no responsibility regarding the fire that claimed the lives of 78 of our citizens, while reactions to the issue continue to mount.

CHP figures, who continue to make statements and social media posts to ensure those responsible for the fire are identified and punished as soon as possible, are also making noteworthy posts regarding Mehmet Nuri Ersoy.

The latest such post was made by CHP Istanbul MP Oğuz Kaan Salıcı on his social media account.

CHP's Salıcı made a striking post regarding Hagia Sophia, which was removed from its status as a museum by the AKP government and began serving as a mosque.

Regarding Hagia Sophia, for which statements were made that 'fees will be charged to foreign tourists who only want to visit for cultural purposes,' Oğuz Kaan Salıcı made the following post:

"Imagine a Minister…

He did what no one else could think of at the 1500-year-old Hagia Sophia.

He turned Hagia Sophia into a cash cow for his friends and family.

Entrance to the museum in Hagia Sophia: 950 TL

The company issuing the tickets: DEM Müzecilik, the company of Tourism Minister Mehmet Nuri Ersoy's brother-in-law

Share transferred to the state: 0 TL

At 25 Euros, if 2 million visitors come per year, that means 50 million Euros.

Good business, Mehmet Nuri Ersoy"
