️Inflation Blows Up in Turkey to Hit Century Peak
Turkey’s inflation rate hit a 23-year high last month, reaching its highest level since 1998.
The consumer price index continued to accelerate up by 3.5% in May, to a total of 73.5%.
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s attempts to use Turkey’s now-cheap lira to eliminate the trade deficit have previously been described as ‘experimental’ by some experts, and seem to be backfiring badly.
