Former AKP deputy Şamil Tayyar responded to Mustafa Destici’s statement about the credit card tax: “The payment of 750 TL has been completely abolished. So what happened now? With this decision, has our president become a traitor, a Greek, an Armenian or something else? You will eat a big bite, you will not talk big…”

Destici had previously made the following statement:

"Those who use a credit card over 100 thousand liras will receive 750 liras from the state to support the defense industry. Give it to me bro! If you don’t, you will end up like Syria, Iraq and Palestine. Mehmetçik gives his life, policeman gives his blood, security guard gives his family; You paid 750 liras, is that a lot? What do we hear from their problems, their team, and the politicians they defend? They defend DEM members, not nationalists. When Türkiye and Greece confront each other, they defend Greece, the West and Armenia. I have never seen them defend Turkey or the Republic of Türkiye. Under the name of Kemalism, they are hostile to the state, homeland and religion by taking shelter behind the words Ataturk and secularism. My advice is this: We, this nation, will give the 750 lira that he did not give. This nation and state do not need the money of those who think like him. Let him go and buy a large raki for 750 liras. "to brew" Let it continue."
