It was learned that the person who responded to the reporter's question, "What is the cause of social decay?" with a profound analysis is academic Dr. Zeliha Burtek.
'THERE IS NO PHILOSOPHY OF LIFE LEFT IN TURKEY'
Burtek stated, "Social decay is the disappearance of what is called ethics; ethics means a philosophy of life. There is no philosophy of life left in Turkey. Let me put it this way: think about Turkish literature, Turkish cinema, and Turkish theater.
In this literature, in this theater, in art, in writing, and in thought, there were never concepts like immigrant culture, refugee culture, the mafia, or money laundering," she said.

It is known that Burtek has been feeding stray animals for 25 years and is a figure known for her love of animals.
