After the severe earthquake in Turkey and Syria (Turkiye Syria Earthquake), people are facing more problems amid the severe cold due to the temperature falling below on Thursday. So far more than 21,000 people have died due to the earthquake. Rescue workers are working tirelessly to rescue the countless people who are still trapped under the rubble.
Do not come here to ask for votes - angry people
The death toll from Monday's 7.8 magnitude earthquake is now rising rapidly. On the other hand, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is facing the anger of the Turkish people. At this time Turkey is facing the worst disaster. At the same time, people gave a message to the President that 'don't come here to ask for votes.
More than $ 4 billion in damage in Turkey
According to data from the American credit rating company Fitch (FITC) and the Turkish Humanitarian Relief Organization (IHH), the earthquake in Turkey caused more than $ 4 billion in damage.
The Turkish leader has proposed a crunch election on May 14 that could keep his Islamist government in power until 2028.
At the same time, the dates set for crunch elections will give his splintered opposition little time to iron out their differences and agree on a joint presidential candidate.
State of emergency declared in 10 provinces of Turkey
Erdogan has declared a three-month state of emergency in 10 quake-hit provinces. Exhumation of the dead is still underway in the area and many people are forced to live on the streets or in their cars. That's why the question of campaigning here does not arise at this time. But there is also a political dimension that is deeply personal to Erdogan.
After battling through a dire economic crisis last year, Turkey's president was once again on the move. But the earthquake during this period made a deep impact.
Tanarivardi is a bad sign for Erdogan in a province where he handily defeated his secular opposition rival in the last election in 2018.
no one supported us
We were deeply saddened that no one supported us, Tanarivardi said of the government's earthquake response. Tanarivardi's complaints are all too common in Adiyaman province, the worst hit by the quake.
At the same time, the local people complain that the rescue teams did not reach in time to evacuate those people. At the same time, some also pointed to the lack of machinery to drill through the concrete slab.
Government should be ashamed - local
Mehmet Yildirim, a resident of Adıyaman, said, 'I didn't see anyone at the scene until 2 pm on the second day after the earthquake.'
'No government, no state, no police, no soldiers. be ashamed of! You left us to fend for ourselves.'
At the same time, Turkish President Erdogan also acknowledged the government's "shortcomings" in dealing with the disaster on Wednesday after seeing continued anger among the people. But even after this disaster, he is fighting once again. Turkey's president led a rescue response meeting in Ankara on Tuesday and spent the next two days touring devastated cities.
America also extended a helping hand
Due to the earthquake in Turkey, America has also decided to give financial help to Turkey. The US on Thursday announced an $85 million package for Turkey in emergency relief. The US agency informed that the money will be sent to provide urgently needed assistance for millions of people through food, shelter, and emergency health services. Funding is being done to provide drinking water and sanitation to the people.
