CHP’s Reaction to Turkey’s Economic Policies
According to party officials, official data indicates a significant rise in personal debts and non-performing loans in Turkey. Non-performing loans have recently surged, reaching around 400 billion liras. Additionally, the total volume of personal debts and credit card debts has exceeded 4.5 trillion liras.
The report also addresses the labor market. Data shows that a significant number of citizens, particularly young people and retirees, are facing employment challenges. Official figures indicate that about three-quarters of retirees are seeking work, while nearly 3 million people have given up looking for jobs.
The situation of producers and farmers is another issue highlighted in the report. According to CHP officials, some farmers are struggling with serious difficulties in selling their products. For example, the purchase price of tea is so low that farmers cannot even cover their basic needs with the income from selling one kilogram of the product.
The final section of the report discusses the economic impact on family structures. Data reveals that the average household size in Turkey has decreased, and many young people are forced to live with their parents due to financial difficulties.
These statements come at a time when Turkey has been facing multiple economic challenges in recent months. Inflation and unemployment rates remain key concerns for economic analysts.
