Turkish elections: Presidential runners settled, MPs next

The general fuss over presidential candidate nominations in Ankara seems to settle down after Kurdish-issue focused People’s Democracy Party (HDP) and its Labor and Freedom Alliance announced that they would not nominate any presidential candidate. While their indirect support to six-party opposition alliance’s candidate Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu stirred yet another debate, the other 11 candidates, who

Erdoğan was rejected twice while opposition catches the tide

It was a few hours after the New Welfare Party (Yeniden Refah Partisi) leader Fatih Erbakan announced that his political-islamist party refused to endorse the ruling People’s Alliance in the elections after meetings with President Tayyip Erdoğan’s Justice and Development Party (AKP) officials. Erbakan not only refused to support, but also announced his candidacy for

Erdoğan is changing tactics amid disaster

The series of earthquakes that shook Türkiye and snuffed out lives has forced President and Justice and Development Party (AKP) leader Tayyip Erdoğan to change his electoral tactics. Both the impression from the ruling circles in Ankara and Erdoğan’s recent moves and outbursts suggest that the president is preparing to turn the state’s earthquake repair

To understand Erdoğan at a critical juncture

The February 6 Kahramanmaraş double-earthquake not only shook Türkiye with terrible loss of life and destruction. It also upset the political balance and increased economic uncertainty ahead of a critical election. Politically, President Tayyip Erdoğan and his twenty-odd year old AK Party government have been the most affected by this trauma. Erdoğan has a difficult

Türkiye’s six party opposition block held their 11th meeting on January 26, falling short of meeting high expectations with their joint declaration.

Turkish President Tayyip Erdoğan may dissolve the parliament and lead the country to early elections in order to gain an electoral advantage. When you form the sentence like “the president may dissolve the parliament,” it sounds different than “if the parliament does not decide for early elections, the president may decide to bring it forward.”

Future Party Leader: “Putin imposes Syrian normalisation on Erdoğan”

Russian President Vladimir Putin imposed reconciliation with Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad on Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan in order to postpone Türkiye’s energy debts, opposition leader Ahmet Davutoğlu said, describing Ankara’s foreign policy normalisation efforts as ill-timed and “humiliating,” aiming to compensate economic loss. “The government is drifting from controlled tensions based on domestic use

AKP’s plan to bring the elections forward may not work

The ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) has been hinting at rescheduling the 2023 elections before its due date of June 18 for some time. There are some drawbacks to doing so, especially in light of President Recep Tayyip Erdoan’s reelection and the AKP maintaining its parliamentary majority. There have been discussions about moving the
