The dismissal of Erdoğan's senior adviser due to criticism of Aliyev is imminent The news of the dismissal of Oktay Sarel, the senior adviser to the President of Turkey, shocked the media in this country. Sharel is one of the strongest figures of the Justice and Development Party, and the only reason for his dismissal was his criticism of Ilham Aliyev for issuing a decree banning the hijab in the schools of the Republic of Azerbaijan. After the widespread demonstrations of religious and political activists in Ankara and Istanbul against Baku's move to ban the hijab, Oktay Sheral wrote on his user account: The violation of the educational rights of masked students in Azerbaijan is unacceptable! What conscience, what justice can justify denying an education to a girl who covers her head because of her faith?
