Erdogan says he hopes volatile Turkish lira will steady soon (Al Jazeera)

December 4, 2021

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said he hopes that volatile foreign exchange and inflation rates would stabilise shortly as he reiterated his stance against high interest rates in the wake of a huge plunge in the lira currency.

The lira shed some 30 percent during the last month in a selloff driven by aggressive interest rate cuts that Erdogan sought, but that economists and opposition politicians say are reckless in part due to soaring inflation.
