Justice and Development Party (AKP) Spokesperson Mahir Ünal has answered the questions of journalists following the Friday prayer.
Ünal spoke about the trial of former Halkbank Deputy General Director in which Rıza Sarraf is a witness in the United States as well as the documents shared by the Republican People's Party (CHP) about President and AKP Chair Recep Tayyip Erdoğan's family members' money transfer to the Isle of Man.
Some of the highlights from Ünal's statements are as follows:
"The jurisdiction in Turkey doesn't operate through US jurisdiction"
"They have taken their failure in the December 17-25 process to a global scale.
"We are going through a process that doesn't accord with international law.
"We are against an understanding that determines the agenda of Turkey through statements of someone [Rıza Sarraf] who declared to have come to terms with the United States to get out of prison. The jurisdiction in Turkey doesn't operate through US jurisdiction".
"Unless we see the authentic ones, those documents are null and void"
"The CHP has some attempts taking politics and agenda of Turkey hostage while Turkey has a very important agenda.
""Unless we see the authentic ones, those documents are null and void. The delivered ones are the photocopies. Are we going to discuss agenda over photocopies? The jurisdiction will decide during the upcoming period.
"Mr. President is now going to file another lawsuit. Company officials have counterclaimed. This is not on the agenda of the National Grand Assembly of Turkey (TBMM) anymore, it will be discussed at courts.
"The CHP must already stop occupying the agenda". (EKN/TK)
