Main opposition Republican People’s Party (CHP) leader Kemal Kilicdaroglu has said Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan has become “the new dictator of Turkey,” Hurriyet Daily News reported.
“There are 7 billion people in the world. Making mistakes is natural for people and they correct their mistakes, and when it’s needed they apologize. This is a human virtue. If we make a mistake, we know how to apologize. But he [Erdogan] says, ‘I do not make mistakes.’ He says, ‘if you don’t do what I say, you can’t be right.’ His name is Turkey’s new dictator, Recep Tayyip Erdogan,” Kilicdaroglu said, addressing his party’s group meeting today at Parliament.
Kilicdaroglu added that the “young protesters of Gezi Park had made a dictator kneel down.” “Now in a panic he is organizing meetings across the country, all he does is yell, but the only one who listens him is himself. Do not pay attention to all the broadcasters’ live streams from his meetings. Nobody listens to what he says. There is one word when it comes to defining Erdoğan: liar,” Kilicdaroglu said.
