Will Erdoğan force a constitution within the political space he emptied?

Could the president of Turkey, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, who failed to crack open the “once in a century window of opportunity” before Turkey, be looking to permanently close this window after shattering the opposition, intent on dismantling them, in the 2023 elections, and turn Turkey into an elective autocracy where the elections, too, are unjust?

Top election authority undermines itself and Turkish Democracy

In line with his previously stated intent, President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has used the authority provided by Article 116(3) of the Constitution and declared Sunday the 14th of May 2023 as the date of the centenarian Turkish Republic’s upcoming presidential and parliamentary elections. The Supreme Election Council (YSK) has already accepted and declared the presidential

Are the popular mayors precluded from being vice presidents?

As soon as the Table of Six proposed that Mr. Ekrem İmamoğlu and Mr. Mansur Yavaş, mayors of İstanbul and Ankara respectively, should be appointed as deputies to Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu if he is elected as the President, President Erdoğan’s Legal Advisor Mehmet Uçum tweeted “It is a clear violation of the Constitution for the same
