Reactions of russians and locals
Russians are expressing outrage and shock over these new restrictions. Over the last period of time, about 40 thousand citizens of the aggressor country have been forced to leave Turkey.
They even threaten Antalya, a city that was previously considered the most "russian" in Turkey, with the possibility of losing its status. There is a real risk that this could have a serious impact on the city's economy, which until now has been ranked fourth in the world in terms of the number of tourists.
In addition, on various websites, russians are trying to sell as quickly as possible what they have previously purchased for living in Turkey. In particular, we are talking about TVs, washing machines, dishwashers, etc.
Meanwhile, locals have long been tired of the russian invasion. They note that inflation is rising in the country and food prices are rising several times due to the arrival of russians. Therefore, when the russians leave, the locals hope to return to a more favorable life.
