Remarkable message from Zafer Party Chairman Ümit Özdağ regarding TELE 1: 'Our views are different, but I do not believe it'

Raising the question of whether the trustee incident will be a step toward shutting down other opposition channels, Ümit Özdağ used the following expressions in his statement:

"TELE 1 TV Editor-in-Chief Merdan Yanardağ has been detained on allegations of espionage. 

My political views are very different from those of Mr. Yanardağ. However, I do not believe that Merdan Yanardağ has committed espionage. Who would believe such an allegation?

This accusation became the justification for appointing a trustee to TELE 1. And a columnist for the Yeni Şafak newspaper has been appointed as the trustee! This means stopping the broadcasts of TELE 1. 

Will it be the turn of other television channels after TELE 1? The pressure on the opposition is increasing day by day through enemy criminal law.

Until election day, we will continue to travel across Turkey step by step under pressures, slanders, and insults. While you insult us, we will continue to explain our projects."
