You should have given it to any one of those 40 million Turks that can barely cover the cost of living, instead of the man that impoverished them.

...now we will witness a "trial", with him hostage.

Anything is a welcome distraction to the corruption of the AKP in the news right now; coincidence?

Depositors in Turkish state run banks might have a haircut but it is looking probable that they will require support from the taxpayer to continue to operate.

Banks are projected to continue making losses and the burden will fall on the Turkish tax payer.

You are probably covered by the deposit guarantee scheme Bordo.

If not, Erdogan will compensate you with onions and potatoes.

...quite a list, and well written.

...with elections and Turkey's Centennial in two years; all this and the HDP on trial, what is to be expected next?

HDP is a regional party mostly Kurds. The only hope Turkey has is Imamoglu defeating Erdogan and CHP taking power after that even if ot is in a coalition, but unfortunatly it will make no difference to us as policy on Cyprus does not change with change of party at the top.
