Berat Albayrak rumors from Fatih Altaylı: 'The movie Eyvah Eyvah is back in theaters'

Journalist Fatih Altaylı criticized President Erdoğan's "low interest, low inflation" rhetoric, drawing attention to the negative consequences of this approach in the past. Altaylı also brought the claims regarding former Minister Berat Albayrak's return to the cabinet to the agenda.

Highlights from Altaylı's column are as follows:

"Of course, when the claims that Berat Albayrak has been pardoned and will be seated in a ministerial chair again are added to this sentence, it feels as if the movie 'Eyvah Eyvah' has been released in theaters once again.

After all, now that Central Bank reserves have returned to the positive with the support of high dollar interest rates, it is the perfect time to try again.

However, names close to the AKP or the Palace that I have spoken to say, 'If Berat Bey returns to a ministry, that ministry will not be the Ministry of Economy.'

The general consensus is that if Berat Albayrak were to return, he could only return to the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources, but a return to the Ministry of Economy is out of the question.

I am of the same opinion. That is the only place it could be. It is too early for the Ministry of Economy, because Central Bank reserves have not yet reached 128 billion dollars."
