“The scheme to eradicate the military dictatorship during the Spring Revolution mustn’t be undermined. Therefore, it is especially necessary for all sectors to be strengthened from all sides. It is also necessary to collect funds in a unified manner rather than scattering here and there. As the flow of funds widens, there may be weaknesses in the construction of the COC during the resistance war. Therefore, the financial management needs to benefit indirectly so that the chain of command from the center can be more consolidated and strong. The people’s defense forces at the bottom will also have to try and build stronger trust in the government,” the Acting President said.

In addition, the Acting President said that the National Unity Government is focusing on the purchase of weapons and ammunition and the expenses of members of the people defense forces, such as food and medicine.
