Will the retirement age be raised?

Vice President Cevdet Yılmaz made important statements during the 12th Development Plan discussions at the Turkish Grand National Assembly (TBMM) Planning and Budget Committee.

In his statement, Yılmaz said, "There was significant volatility in the exchange rate after the election. There was a quite significant change. We do not expect such volatility in the coming period. We do not have a target related to this. We do not have any study regarding raising the retirement age." He added, "There are currently 4.7 million foreigners in Turkey. 3.6 million of them are Syrians."
