Believe me, if this city is fun, if we were talking about Kanal Istanbul, I would say let's sit down and discuss. Believe me, I find even a single minute of it empty to discuss this issue.
Let's analyze this together. Let me tell you the scientific side of this topic. 3 and 4 billion cubic meters of excavation, with the excavation of the excavation where the projection is not certain projectors produce results.
They say 'Let's make 3 islands in the mouth of Küçükçekmece and the mouth of Lake Büyükçekmece in front of Avcılar.' These are in the project. Where are these islands right on top of the earthquake line belt. This city does not need such a capsule, such trauma, and I do not know. Let's talk about the technical details but it's time and not right.
If a country makes the wrong investment at the wrong time, it will have great problems. Like today. Many of the current account deficits arise from incorrect investments at the wrong time. Many problems arise in terms of cities. Look, this city should produce at least 50 - 55 kilometers of metro every year. They failed 3 in 1 of this. This is the subject, let's solve this. ”He expressed his opposition to the project.
