Today, BTK officials and Instagram officials held a meeting and it was stated that the meeting was positive. President Erdoğan announced that the problem will be solved if Turkey’s sensitivities are respected. Erdoğan will make evaluations about lifting the access ban on Instagram or continuing the ban at the Presidential Cabinet Meeting, which will start at 15.30 today.
“Social media companies have almost become militant”
President Erdoğan stated that social media companies have become militant and said:
“Social media companies have become militant. We are faced with a digital fascism that cannot even tolerate photographs of Palestinian martyrs. These companies, which encourage all kinds of immorality under the name of freedom, have virtually declared war on the Palestinian people. We are not witnessing this attitude of social media platforms again. Despite our warnings, all terrorist organizations from FETO to PKK are running wild. They openly insult our nation’s faith. “Criminal and terrorist companies take whatever actions they want in these channels.”
“Cooperation could not be achieved”
Explaining that the desired cooperation with social media platforms has not been achieved, President Erdoğan said:
“Social media platforms act like mafia when their interests are harmed. Our nation’s faith is also insulted on these platforms. We have not yet fully established the desired cooperation with these platforms. “We have no problem with anyone’s freedom of expression, our aim is to protect the rights of our people.”
Harsh words for those who criticized the Instagram ban
President Erdoğan criticized those who stated that the access ban on Instagram violated freedom of expression. He said the following on the subject:
“You see that those who have never once criticized the disgrace of social media platforms are sitting in front of the screen, out of breath, lining up to complain about Turkey to the Westerners. With all due respect, this is not the way to defend freedoms. This is not about protecting freedom of expression. This is called house blackness. “This house is more Western than Western. The only purpose of black people in life is to be nice to their owners.”
