Prime Minister Erdoğan delivered a number of messages directed to a wide variety of the public during a speech delivered at a meeting held by the Turkish Industry & Business Association, or TÜSİAD.
"We grew up by constantly crashing into rules. The way we lived our lives and our appearance and the way we dressed was constantly interfered upon. Therefore, we would never interfere ourselves in someone else's lifestyle." "YOU CAN'T SAVE YOURSELF CLAIMING A STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS" "The recent releases have resulted in bringing questioning the Supreme Council on the agenda once again.

How can this even be possible? We are determined to take certain steps of reform regarding the Supreme Court and the State Council.
