Turkey: Recep Tayyip Erdogan re-elected despite very difficult economic and political context


The count has yet to be officially completed, but President Recep Tayyip Erdogan spoke this Sunday, May 28, after 7:00 p.m. to a crowd of supporters in Istanbul to claim victory. According to our local journalist Helen Bonnet, this trend has been confirmed by all news agencies and the High Electoral Commission, giving him a gap of two to five points with his rival Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu.

Failure for the opposition

The President of Turkey has won his bet. And this despite the runaway inflation that hit the middle class, despite the management of the earthquake, which was heavily criticized, and then the reduction of public freedoms. It would seem that voters are not offended by him and tonight offer him a third term at the head of the country after 20 years in power.
