On April 23rd, Abdulkadir Uraloğlu attended the reception organized at the Turkish Grand National Assembly and answered questions. One of these questions was whether there was any update on X’s representation in Turkey.
Uraloğlu said that if X does not open a representative office, new sanctions will be imposed. He said in his statement: “X still has not appointed a representative in Turkey. A legal regulation will also be required. Our negotiations are still ongoing. There is an advertising ban in force. Its continuation is also on our agenda.”
