2020 'Year of Accessibility'

 Erdogan, who expressed difficulty in even entering the areas where some houses are located, said: "Why? It's not accessible to him. That's what we need to make them accessible. It is also not right to conduct this process randomly, unplanned, unscheduled. Accessibility standards must be set and all institutions must carry out their work accordingly. For this purpose, it is necessary to declarate 2020 as the 'year of accessibility'. With projects to be carried out, both physical access and digital transformation, most importantly, steps should be taken towards mental transformation. If there's no mental transformation, there's already an injury here. I would like to express in particular that I will personally follow this process as President."

"We will build strong families so that we can be a strong nation"

 "Family institution is the backbone of our national existence," President ERDOGAN said. Otherwise, just as the collapsed body of the spine is paralyzed, it is inevitable that a family institution will be destroyed in a divided society. This is the biggest threat to Western societies today. The west is collapsing. Why? There's no such thing as family. But now he's threatening us, too.

When the family institution dissipates, the population begins to decline. Why do I say at least three kids? The reason I said that is because I’m not going to say it. strong nations are made up of strong families. We're going to build strong families so we can be strong folks. For years, unfortunately, they had a policy of sterilization at the birth point. Why? For turkey's population to be reduced. I would argue otherwise that our population should multiply, which is the backbone of the economy that we have studied economics. If there are people, you are strong, if there are people, you are not strong, there is labor if there is human, there is capital if there is human, there is money, if there is human, there is production, there is consumption, there is no human bein.
