Not long left for this man.

Sanctions on Turkey and another currency crisis are looming to help the people revolt.

So, he’s holding a “People’s vote”, because he didn’t like the result he got the first time? That has a familiar ring about it. :lol: :lol: :lol:

He would save money, if he simply arrested the opposing candidate. I think that's what he did in the Kurdish areas. :mrgreen:

you clearly are cluless as to what happened with erdogan or brexit. you must pay mre attention to the events and also the context of what is is going on.

when you say wind, it could be a tornado coming towards you or milti has let one go again. although the two perhaps are comparable but i suspect otherwise.

I will propose to Erdogan to connect your rear end to TurkStream. :wink:

...the genius is that Istanbulites will have to choose between their vacations and the election, given the date chosen.

ANKARA, Turkey — The night the Supreme Electoral Council announced it had voided the election for Istanbul’s mayor, a legion of residents in the city banged pots and pans.

It was a throwback to the Gezi Park protests of 2013, when thousands of housewives who could not take to the streets took to their windows to vent their feelings about then-Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan. A video taken from a high building Monday night recorded a cacophony of cookware from Istanbul’s streets.

The next day, people realized that the day the electoral council had chosen for the re-run election, June 23, would fall one week into the summer holidays. Thousands of middle-class residents, most probably opposition voters, would be far away from Istanbul’s polling stations.

The Aegean island of Bozcaada posted a warning on social media that Istanbulites should not swim in its turquoise waters June 23 because “shark attacks are expected.” Another Aegean resort went one better: “Bodrum will be experiencing heavy snow June 23. We advise you to enjoy the sunshine in Istanbul that day.”

there is only two ways erdogan can win.
1. he finds a reason to disqualify imamoglu
2. he swtiches real ballot boxes with his own votes like he does everywhere else.

the real situation is why he doesnot put any pressure on terggy like he does to venezvuela. that syats the yanks fully support erdogan.

long live the piece loving west. a pice of everything that is
