VAR HAVE RESPONSIBILITIES TO CONVECT THE SOCIETY ”
IMM President gave the opening speech of the workshop. Ekrem İmamoğlu performed. İmamoğlu started his speech by celebrating the “January 10 World Working Journalists Day” by the members of the media who watched the workshop. “Istanbul is such a precious and unique city that even anyone who will hit it with a pick has to come out and explain why they have to do it,” İmamoğlu continued as follows:
“Kanal Istanbul is a project that will change the geography of Istanbul and seriously affect all aspects of natural and urban life. Those who bring this project to the agenda have to explain why we have to do so and convince the society. Kanal Istanbul is a huge and very risky surgery that nobody will ever say yes unless they have to. It's a completely wrong operation. Istanbul will be cut down. Istanbul's vital systems will be damaged. Some parts of Istanbul will be paralyzed. Some places will be crippled. Those who lead a city to have such a risky, such fatal surgery cannot say, 'Whatever you say, this surgery will be performed'. Those who put their heads on doing this must definitely explain why we have to have this surgery. We all have to understand why Istanbul has to be cut down. Together, we must be convinced of the reasons for this obligation, with 16 million even 82 million citizens. We all have to know everything about the risks of this major surgery imposed on Istanbul and learn every detail. We will find out first. We must learn. After that, we make our decision together. All of these can only come about through a healthy learning and thinking process. This workshop aims to scientifically reveal all the risks of the knife that will be immersed in Istanbul's bosom, namely Kanal Istanbul. "
“WHAT SCIENCE SAYS, WE WILL EAR HIM”
Imamoğlu emphasized that they would listen to what science and scientists say, “We will try to understand, learn and question. We will know all the risks that Kanal Istanbul may pose, and then each of us will ask ourselves: Is it worth taking all those risks? Are we really obliged to Kanal Istanbul? Are we told the truth? While this city and this country has so many problems, is it its time for troubles and troubles? Our attitude towards Kanal Istanbul is not political but vital. Because this project is one of the biggest risks that this city can face throughout its history. This project of bringing up, 'de Whatever you say, we will do this surgery' those who say there are two basic argument: 'ship passage in the Bosporus possible risks due to be lived and I promise to Turkey this project is it will bring income.' It is very important to ensure that ships, especially those carrying dangerous cargo, pass safely through the straits. Of course, we must all be very sensitive. In order to ensure the security of the Bosphorus, we will all stand behind our government and provide full support for whatever steps our government will take internationally. We have to make all kinds of cooperation. Nobody has any doubts. But when you take the transit route of large and dangerous ships from one part of Istanbul to another, you cannot solve the security problem. No such thing. Furthermore, we know that Channel Istanbul cannot be an alternative in terms of the size and depth of large vessels and we cannot force ships to cross the channel instead of the Bosphorus. Nobody put us, so to speak, children! whatever the passage from the Where Istanbul, ships pose a risk, the letter to Turkey is obliged to pass the high safety standards laid down by u. The main thing is to achieve this. ”
İN IMPLEMENT THE SAMSUN-CEYHAN PIPELINE TO THE CHANNEL LOCATION AY
Stating that Kanal Istanbul and the Bosphorus are aimed to reduce the function of the Bosphorus in oil transportation, İmamoğlu stated that this situation is also wrong. İmamoğlu said, “You cannot achieve this by taking the route from the strait and turning it into a canal. What needs to be done is to develop and implement different alternatives such as the Samsun - Ceyhan Oil Pipeline. Leaving all these dimensions and different alternatives aside and reaching the conclusion that “Canal Istanbul is essential for Bosphorus security” is not correct, not rational, not rational. On the contrary, it is a groundwork for 'done and out', it is an excuse. The owner of the Istanbul Canal project, secondly argue it would bring revenue to Turkey. It is not possible to understand on what basis they put this forward. It is not even clear that with what money, by whom, and what kind of financing model the project mentioned will be realized. It's not even what to do! Believe it is not clear what to do. We spend our days and nights on this job. Every day there is talk of a different model, ”he said.
“HOCADAN, HOCA Joke”
In his speech, Imamoglu, one of the participants of the workshop. Dr. He shared a joke from Derin Orhan with Nasrettin Hoca. Am A Hodja joke from Hodja, ”İmamoğlu said,“ Nasrettin Hodja wrote a letter. The child extended the envelope, he said; 'Send this to.' The boy got the letter. He said, 'It doesn't say anything, it's empty.' Hodja 'Olsun, hollow in the' gave the answer ”said. Am This is what the project told me about, süre he said. “The owners of the Kanal Istanbul project, unfortunately, do not approach the economic dimension of the issue with the seriousness of a real investor, İm said İmamoğlu.
“THE CHANNEL HAS NO HAND-HELD REASONS”
Leri They say: 'I open a canal, I get money from the passer-by, I build buildings around the canal, and I make money from there!' This is not an approach that fits today's world. This is not an economic approach. This is not a rational approach. This is not a legal approach that complies with international agreements. It is a model based solely on soil, concrete and rent, which does not contain production and advanced technology, and unfortunately does not carry the added value and brand perspective. With this model, you cannot make money, create economic recovery and employment in today's world. There's no money in that. Reports are clear. Turkey is the middle point we tried it last year and came in. The level of unemployment and poverty is obvious. Channel Istanbul project to bring the last 9 years, Turkey's agenda from time to time, from time to time also notable drop from the agenda, there is no tangible grounds. Those who announced this project by making a big noise before the 2011 elections had silently passed the issue in the 2015 general elections and the 2019 Istanbul local elections. Suddenly, they are overheating the matter and trying to make us face to face with a bit. From here they produce a new political campaign. We do not need this project which is based on daily politics and some commercial connections, rent relations and this fluctuating, unfortunately revolving policy carried out through this project. There is no memory to lose. ”
“PRIORITIES OF ISTANBUL IS OUR PRIORITY”
Noting that many important and vital problems of the country İmamoğlu, "Turkey is obliged to Istanbul Channel is not a country. Istanbul is not an obligatory city. But Istanbul is obliged to initiate stationary metro investments, to invest in many more subway and urban transportation alternatives, and to solve the traffic problem that has not been solved for decades like all civilized metropolises. Istanbul is obliged to protect, develop and increase the remaining green areas. Istanbul is obliged to protect, develop and increase its water resources meticulously. Istanbul is obliged to find food, drink milk and offer preschool education opportunities to its young children who cannot get adequate nutrition and receive adequate education. Istanbul is obliged to provide educational opportunities, to provide scholarships and to create job opportunities for its young people. Istanbul is obliged to offer women the opportunity to participate in social life in peace and security. Istanbul is obliged to facilitate the lives of the unemployed, the poor and the retired. We see it as a priority and we work for it to fulfill all these obligations of Istanbul ”.
Ç NEVER ANYONE WILL RISE THE RING S
Emamoglu emphasized that the problems of Istanbul are not only their responsibility but also the central administration. Am We are ready and willing to work in harmony with the government in every field. There are no question marks in our minds. We only have one condition: No one should say, 'I know, I will.' Nobody raises the ring. We already have these voices in our land. Listen to Mevlana. Look what the Prophet said: 'Raise your word; not your voice. Rain raises the flowers; not thunder '. For him; Let us all listen to the words of the people, experts and scientists. Let's be willing, sincere and sincere in finding common mind and dominating. Today's workshop is the product of this understanding and effort. Today's workshop is the product of an effort to reach a common mind and common decision. Today's workshop is the product of the effort to preserve this ancient city, which has been the cradle of civilizations, for the future. Today's workshop is a product of an effort to ask the nation its idea instead of ordering it to the nation. ”
IZ We will share the workshop results with the nation ”
Imamoğlu stated that they will send all the results of the workshop to all the authorities that have the responsibility of making decisions on behalf of the nation and the nation. “Thus, we fulfill our responsibility towards the values of this cherished city and 16 million Istanbulites at the highest level. While no one talked, no one had the opportunity to argue about the matter, everything was taken from the fire as if it was to be brought to the end, we took the initiative as the IMM to inform our people. We invited the relevant authorities of our state to take responsibility. We created platforms for scientists to talk. First we organized the water symposium and then this workshop. After that, we will continue to provide all necessary legal struggle. We will never fall behind our duties and legal responsibilities. ”
BAK Look into the eyes of your children, your grandchildren T
“Today I want to address everyone who listens to us, to all Istanbulites and all my citizens, İm said İmamoğlu and said:“ Please stand before your children and grandchildren today. Look into their eyes. Take a good look. Do you think they need this project? Do you think this is the smartest job they can do for their future? Do you think they expect a greener, more livable, hassle-free and more civilized Istanbul than those who run this city and this country today? Or does he want this city to have such a risky surgery? We're trustees. We will deliver them to this country. This is the real issue of us, all of us living in this city and this country, and each of us filling this hall. And this is a vital issue. And there is nothing, but nothing political, to discuss this issue, to try to understand the risks associated with Kanal Istanbul. To all of you who come here today to take responsibility, to the experts who will express your opinion and to all the delegates involved, to everyone who will help to enlighten the society by sharing ideas, to all political parties, especially to the Presidents, executives of non-governmental organizations, academicians and experts; not only on behalf of 16 million Istanbulites, but on behalf of all our future generations, on behalf of our children and grandchildren. ”
