The "prime minister" is going to Ankara on Wednesday, Faiz Suzhouoglu along with "government" partners Fikri Ataoglu of the PP and "tourism minister" and Erhan Arikl of the CA and "transport minister". They were joined by the "finance minister", Sunat Atoun with the TC newspapers reporting today that he was going to resign or be removed, but this was blocked by Ankara.
The 4 men will see the Turkish Vice President, Fuat Oktay today just as the T/Q reports speak of a crisis erupting in the "government" over the decision of "Prime Minister" Suzhouoglu to announce a reduction in electricity prices and Sunat Atun publicly disagreeing by suggesting that an additional 180 million euros would be needed.
According to the Turkish press, Mr. Soudzouoglu allegedly tried to remove Atun from his position by forcing him to resign but this was blocked by Ankara and therefore he was summoned to Turkey, together with the partners of the "government" and Atun himself. They will discuss issues related to the "co-government" and the new protocol on financial and economic cooperation between Turkey and the pseudo-state.
The "Deputy Prime Minister", Hussein Amziyaoglu said that the new protocol will be signed tomorrow, Thursday.
According to Avrupa, Faiz Suzhouoglu has conveyed to the Turkish Vice President, Fuat Oktay, his opposition to certain clauses in the protocol, such as the freezing of the Accurate Living Allowance (ATA), the cancellation of the 13th salary and the sale of the "electricity authority".
Meanwhile, the employees of the "electricity authority" continue their work stoppage today, denouncing the attempt to privatize the "authority" to foreign (Turkish) funds.
Yeni Dusen writes that in addition to the freezing of the ATA in the "public" sector, the new protocol also includes an increase in taxes, which was denied by "Prime Minister" Suzhouoglu speaking to the newspaper. He refused to reveal the content of the protocol saying that it has not yet taken its final form.
The opposition in the occupied territories reacts because the content and what clauses it contains are not revealed while Erdogan Sorakin, the head of the PKK, said that the biggest problem is that in the occupied territories they use the Turkish lira. The CKD's c.g., Nevzat Ozkund said that the protocol should not contain measures that put the burden of the economic crisis on the backs of ordinary people. The SG of the CL, Ahmet Tokaloglu said that the preparations made for the new protocol are not sufficient.
