Minister of Agriculture and Forestry İbrahim Yumaklı attempted to place a fig sapling into the ground along with its pot during a tree-planting event he attended in Aydın. The planting process was corrected following the intervention of those nearby.
The event was held in the garden of the Fig Research Institute Directorate in Aydın. As Yumaklı turned toward the hole prepared for planting, he placed the fig sapling into the soil without removing it from the pot surrounding its roots.
It was reported that Minister Yumaklı said at that moment, "Thus, I have had a tree planted in Aydın." However, the error was corrected following a warning from a citizen who noticed that the sapling had been placed in the hole with its pot.
In the footage, it was seen that ministry officials and event attendees were present at the sapling, and a brief confusion occurred during the planting process.
