The foundations of new houses are laid every hour of every day, this number is constantly increasing. Our target is to build a total of 650 thousand houses, 319 thousand of which are within the first year. to deliver to earthquake victims. We will also build 7 thousand 452 disaster houses in Elazig. Today we laid the foundations of 31 thousand 663 houses, 505 of which are in our city. The relevant institutions of our state are making extraordinary efforts to heal the wounds. “I am glad to see that the spiritual climate of Ramadan, which softens hearts and brings our hearts closer to each other, reminds us of our human values, surrounds our country. We woke up as a nation on the morning of February 6, with one of the biggest disasters not only in our own history but also in the history of humanity. Based in Kahramanmaraş. Earthquakes with magnitudes of 7.7 and 7.6 caused great destruction and loss of life in 11 provinces, including Elazig. We are aware that no matter what we do, we cannot bring back those who are gone. But we also know very well that it is possible to compensate for all our losses, except for the loss of life.”

‘WE ARE STRONG TO MAKE ALL KIND OF LOSS’

Stating that the losses suffered in the disasters during their rule were compensated, Erdoğan continued his words as follows:

“Thank God, the state of the Republic of Turkey has reached the power and capacity to compensate for all kinds of losses during our rule. The closest witness of our state’s greatness at the disposal and service of its citizens is Elazig itself. After the earthquake in Elazig in 2020, we did not leave any of our people unattended and helpless. We worked day and night to bring all of our brothers and sisters whose houses were destroyed in the earthquake to their new homes. After the earthquake, we completed the 25 thousand houses we promised and delivered them to the rightful owners from Elazig. Even though some people try to interrupt us with ridiculous lies instead of encouraging us for more, we are committed to our promise. We We are not one of those who forget the promise we made in the squares and rostrums when they come to office. We are not one of those who open their packs when the ballot box appears on the horizon, and stay on their promises after the election has passed. Just as we kept our promise to you in 2020, I hope we will show the same success here. While doing business and serving the country and the nation, we refer those who pursue other ambitions to Allah first and then to the conscience of the world. We do not have time to waste with these incompetent people, nor do we have the luxury to listen to their talk. Our earthquake victims are waiting for a job, waiting for service, waiting for a home from us. He expects the problems caused by the disaster to be resolved as soon as possible. As the People’s Alliance, we are determined not to let these expectations go to waste. By Allah’s leave, after we get through this election agenda with peace, we will put more emphasis on the work in the earthquake zone. Of course, in this process, we will not allow the election atmosphere to disrupt our concentration and push your needs into the background. We only have 43 days left. We will all go to the polls on May 14, and we will show our choice on behalf of our country, our nation, our children and our future. I believe that the gakkos who have never left us alone and supported us will repeat the same determined stance on May 14. Among you, those who do not hesitate to walk with terrorist organizations when you go to the polls, those who fight for their seats while the pain of our nation is still fresh, those who do not develop any vision to find solutions to the problems of our country, those who encourage FETO members and separatists with their words, those who have no promise other than chaos, crisis and instability, those who have no promise other than chaos, crisis and instability, the fact is, other than their own political gains, their own interests, their own enthusiasm. I expect you to give the lessons they deserve to those who don’t think anything. We expect you to bury these abusers, who neither worry about the plight of our citizens nor respect the values ​​of faith and symbols of the nation they seek to rule, on 14 May. My brothers, I trust Elazig. I say that my Lord may make our way clear.”

President Erdogan and his entourage left the city after the program.
