Health Minister Fahrettin Koca issued a statement on the claim that a foreign doctor was among those arrested in the operation against the Mossad, Israel’s foreign intelligence service, in collaboration with the National Intelligence Agency and the General Directorate of Security.
Koca issued a statement on his social media account denying the claim. Minister Koca said the foreigner was not a doctor but a cleaner.
Sharing the information that the suspect is Egyptian, Koca said:
“He was recruited in 2019 as part of the Migrant Health Centers project carried out jointly with the European Union. No negative results were found in the safety investigation carried out by the Ministry of Labor and Social Security before his appointment. He was granted a work permit by the Ministry of Labor and Social Security until January 31, 2024.
The cleaner was never involved in health services. Claiming that the person is a “doctor” is an attempt to seize an “opportunity.”
This is because the plaintiffs have repeatedly reiterated that foreign (Syrian) doctors “received their diplomas and citizenship without any security screening or examination.” They may now believe the words they have repeated over and over again.
Just because they believe their own words doesn’t change the concrete reality. There is no need to explain these words again. I need to provide some information about the Immigrant Health Centers where the cleaner works as these are the subject of debate. The project, carried out jointly with the EU, will provide health services to asylum seekers under temporary protection in Immigrant Health Centers. “In these centers, services are provided only to foreigners who are under protection.”
“What we demand is respect for the truth”
Stating that work permits for foreigners in Immigrant Health Centers are issued by the General Directorate of International Workforce of the Ministry of Labor and Social Security, Koca continued as follows:
“Necessary safety investigations are being carried out. A foreigner who has not been issued a work permit cannot be employed in Immigrant Health Centers. The accusation that a doctor “received a diploma and citizenship without undergoing a security examination or an examination” and that the cleaner had in some way become a “fake doctor” promises political gain if this is the case case is surprising in this respect; “The person identified as an agent worked in an immigrant health center in Istanbul where patients from Gaza were treated.” Everyone knows that patients from Gaza are treated in large hospitals in Ankara, not in places like this.
Those who create schedules that are a waste of time should remember; The shame of those who accepted lies and slander by conflating the proud success of the National Intelligence Organization with other issues soon became clear. Lies that become habitual are the murder of one’s personality. “What we demand is respect for the truth.”
