DİSK reacts: "Living humanely in retirement is a right"
DİSK President Arzu Çerkezoğlu reacted to President Erdoğan's announcement regarding the pension hike.
President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan announced in a statement following the cabinet meeting that a 5 percent additional raise has been applied to pensions. Erdoğan also announced that the lowest pension has been increased to 10 thousand liras.
ÇERKEZOĞLU: IT IS OPPRESSION
DİSK President Arzu Çerkezoğlu reacted to Erdoğan's announcement. In a statement on her social media account X, Çerkezoğlu said the following:
"It is oppression to provide an increase far below the official inflation rate to retirees whose base salary is below 7500 TL. Giving other retirees a raise equal to an inflation rate that no one believes in, while saying 'Turkey is growing' and impoverishing the retiree, is an injustice. Living humanely in retirement is a right!"
