Hulya Avşar’s First Statement on ‘Simit’ Reactions

There is only one issue that is on the agenda of almost every segment of society in Turkey. During these periods, when the Turkish Lira saw its most worthless levels in history, the dollar had reached the limit of 18. Then, with a new statement by President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, the dollar experienced a sharp decline and decreased by 5 liras overnight to 12.50. This article was written at 19:36 if dollar at 11.33 level.

Of course, the statements made in these turbulent times can cause an equally great reaction. As you may recall, Hülya Avşar answered the question asked about the state of the economy recently. “If necessary, simit will be eaten…” he shocked. Of course, the social media reactions to his exit were not delayed. After this exit, Avşar for the first time in a new statement found.

‘I don’t care and I don’t count any of you’

Avşar responded to the reactions on Twitter. In his post, he said the following: “If you’ve calmed down, it’s my turn. It is not the part of my speech that we will overcome these days together. Those who stick to “simit”; I don’t wear any of you and I don’t count. As for my bagel eating thing, i eat or not But one thing I know, I won it myself, it wasn’t easy at all.”

Continuing his explanations with a second tweet, Avşar said, “’I’m still winning. I did not account for this to anyone, I will never give it to you. If those who think like you were in our heads; no democracy, no freedom of speech… What I will say is, “We will eat bagels if necessary, but we will get through these days together.” What is your reaction to these statements?
