These are the highlights of President Erdogan’s statements;
I wish once again God’s mercy to our citizens who lost their lives in the earthquake.
As a state, we have supported our citizens with all our means since the earthquake.
On the one hand, when trying to rescue those under the rubble, we quickly established mechanisms to address urgent needs. We rolled up our sleeves to hand over their homes to those who lost their homes in the earthquake. 4,774 buildings were destroyed. We decided to build 26,000 houses, 20,000 in Elazig, 6,000 in Malatya.
In 6 months after the earthquake, we delivered 2,517 homes to their beneficiaries. 8 schools with 136 classrooms are being built.
We put 1,195 residences at the service of our citizens in Malatya. We have implemented very special projects that meet the needs of our citizens who are dedicated to agriculture and livestock, especially for our towns. With an investment of more than 5 billion lire, we are building a new, modern and safe city in Elazig for approximately 100,000 people.
Preventing earthquakes, floods, landslides, and disasters are, of course, beyond human will. We live in a country above the world’s major earthquake zones. As throughout history, today we encounter earthquakes and floods. We may not be able to prevent it, but we can take steps that cause as little harm as possible.

Especially during the unplanned period of the Republic of Turkey, as a result of negligence did not establish a safe building against disasters.
The houses built by people in our villages are not resistant to disasters either. This fact was shown in all its nakedness since the Marmara earthquake.
We experienced the Elazig, Malatya earthquake at the beginning of last year and the Izmir earthquake in October.

Scientists regularly warn us to be prepared for new earthquakes by examining earthquakes on the fault line. I think that the transformation of millions of buildings is not that easy. Anyone with a conscience and understanding will agree.
The enormous size of the work has not prevented us from acting. We work with all our strength within the framework of the priorities that we set for ourselves. We have made significant progress in building earthquake resistant buildings.
1.5 MILLION HOUSING MESSAGES
Our activities continue in 268 risk areas. The construction of 272 thousand public housing and urban transformation continues throughout the country. The urban transformation works in Istanbul alone have spread over an area of 10 million square meters.
Our goal is to complete 1.5 million homes in urgent need of transformation in the next 5 years.
After the Izmir earthquake in October, we started the construction of 5,000 houses in this city.
In addition to preparing for disasters, we also care about the quality of urbanization in our country. Our earthquake houses in Elazig and Malatya were built with this approach.
Vertical architecture is suicide for us in the earthquake zone.
We have previously been exposed to terrorist attacks, our borders set aside the embattled initiatives we face in the coronavirus outbreak photo alone is enough to show the power of Turkey.
This month, we opened 2 transportation projects, which are important both for Elazig and for our region. One of them is the Kömürhan bridge. the other is the Diyarbakır-Ergani Devegeçidi bridge …

Erdoğan addressed the citizens of the area by bus ahead of the turnkey ceremony of the earthquake and memorial residences to be held in Yazıkonak due to the first year of the Elazig earthquake. Recalling that there was sadness, trouble and tears in Elazig a year ago and that the buildings were destroyed by an earthquake, Erdogan declared that everything was destroyed.
Explaining that not all ministers say day and night, they are trying to get the citizens out of the rubble, Erdogan said: “You were crying, ‘I wonder if my son will come out.’ In fact, among these,” I wonder if our president, who lost his mother and father today, will come to us too. “We have promised you that we will do much better than these. These destroyed buildings are built, but the life that left will not return. But you showed an attitude so faithful that you gave us strength. ” I speak.
Erdogan recalled that the Minister of the Interior, Süleyman Soylu, the Minister of Environment and Urbanization, Murat Kurum, and Vice President Fuat Oktay, are following up on this work with governors and deputies. Erdogan said that he praised Allah when he saw the work done and continued as follows:
“‘How many rooms?’ I asked them, they say ’31’ and they pray. Thank God, it is not our duty to prepare a happy opportunity for them with their schools, mosques and apartments in which they live, it is not our duty. That is why the state is called ‘father of the state’ in the past. Now we, as the Popular Alliance, have become servants of this nation, not to be masters, but to be servants, we continue this path. How would we have survived that night? if there were no hospitals. Thank God, without However, all the operations and everything was serial. We are at your service with our schools and everything. We have a lot of work to do from now on. “
Asking the Ministry of Environment and Urbanization when the next stage will be completed, Erdoğan said:
“The minister says he will finish the rest in 6 months. So Gakkoş, ‘Ours is not over’, he is going to say. It will all be over. We will be one, we will be a big brother, we will always be throughout Turkey. Have Rabies A nation, a flag, a homeland, a state We will walk this way like this There is no separation We will love each other for God, not for position and position.
