"SOLVE THIS ISSUE" INSTRUCTION

"We spent an evening full of 'distinguished' guests .:) I am very happy to have performed a small ney concert at the reception held for the visit of German President Mr. Frank-Walter Steinmeier to Turkey. I also told him about the 'visa' problem we are experiencing in our country—which has worsened in recent years—and which is a major problem especially for artists and business people, and I requested that this issue be resolved :) Seeing that there was no escaping me, he gave instructions by saying 'solve this issue,' thank you to him :) Everything is for our people, we are working :) It was a very beautiful evening, I would like to thank everyone who contributed..."
