President and AKP Chairman Recep Tayyip Erdoğan spoke at his party's rally in Aksaray with 5 days remaining until the local elections.

Highlights from Erdoğan's remarks are as follows:

We have seen the best days in our history in terms of growth, national income, and industry.

We are struggling with painful inflation. We made a one-time payment of 5,000 TL to all our retirees.

We also increased salaries and bonuses by 50 percent. Our hands will be a bit more relaxed in the second half of the year as inflation falls. Because with high inflation, it is like a bottomless pit; whatever we give, it disappears.

Our country will become one of the 10 largest economies. Circles that are uncomfortable with our country's strength and potential want to drag our nation into pessimism by using the opposition.
