ISTANBUL — A recent visit by opposition politicians to a pensioners’ association has highlighted the plight of those hit hardest by Turkey’s highest rate of inflation in two decades.
Retirees across the country have seen their income ravaged by price increases of 36.08% year-on-year, according to official figures. Unofficially, independent economists at ENAGrup, which analyses thousands of prices, put the annual rate at 82.81%.
