We are directly or indirectly affected

Therefore, even if we look from the viewpoint of just neighbor countries or marketplace, a fall at export numbers with 2015 confronts us comprehensibly. We had a safe and sound election in 7th June. I want to express here that we are waiting for a constructive and positive politics understanding by giving their all toward dialogue and reconciliation. I call every part to support coalition government which will give the lasting peace and carry out structural reforms for Turkey by put political party profits to one side’’.
