Making a statement after the Kanye West concert, Oktay Saral reacted to the rhetoric and symbols displayed at the organization and called on the Ministry of Culture and Tourism.

The Kanye West concert held in Istanbul has become the focus of a new debate following statements made after the event. In his evaluation of the organization, Chief Presidential Advisor Oktay Saral stated that the event should not be viewed as an ordinary music organization.

Saral noted that tens of thousands of young people who attended the concert were made part of a show featuring rhetoric and symbols that he argued were incompatible with values of faith and civilization.

OKTAY SARAL EMPHASIZES CULTURAL VALUES

Stating in his explanation that some expressions voiced during the concert should be addressed with seriousness, Saral argued that the messages on stage and the collective reactions to them were particularly noteworthy.

Saral also suggested that the presence of Michèle Lamy, who is associated with occultism and various symbols, around the organization meant the event should not be evaluated solely by its music and entertainment dimensions.

CALL FOR ATTENTION TO THE MINISTRY

Claiming in his statement that the conservative segment had also become a part of this process, Saral expressed that the cultural influences on young people should not be ignored.

Saral called on the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, stating that more caution should be exercised in organizations that concern the spiritual and cultural sensitivities of society.

EVALUATION ON YOUTH AND CULTURAL INFLUENCES

At the end of his post, Saral emphasized the importance of young people embracing their own civilizational values rather than the directives of the global culture industry.

SARAL'S NEPHEW ALSO ATTENDED THE CONCERT

While it was revealed in posts made by social media users that Kanye West did not sing the song 'I am God' at the concert criticized by Chief Presidential Advisor Oktay Saral, it also emerged from his own post that Saral's nephew had attended the concert.

HERE ARE THOSE EXPRESSIONS BY SARAL:

The Kanye West concert staged in Istanbul cannot be accepted as an ordinary music organization.

118 thousand young people have been made part of a show where rhetoric and symbols contrary to our faith and civilizational values are displayed by paying money. The enthusiastic repetition of the words “I am a God” by tens of thousands of people is a picture that must be addressed with seriousness.

Moreover, the presence of Michèle Lamy, who is known for occultism and dark symbols, around this organization shows that the issue is not just about music and entertainment.

What is even more thought-provoking is that the conservative segment has also become a part of this cultural siege. It is grave that no one objects to this alienation imposed on our youth under the stage lights.

We invite our Ministry of Culture and Tourism to be much more careful in such organizations that concern the spiritual and cultural sensitivities of our nation.

The children of this nation must embrace their own civilizational values, not the directives of the global culture industry.
