"Recep Tayyib Erdogan will remain president of Turkey for another five years
after winning Sunday’s run-off election over his long-time rival, Kemal
Kilicdaroglu. If he serves the full five-year term, he will have held power for
26 years – almost the entire history of Turkey in the 21st century.
What is astonishing is how the majority of Turkish people elected Erdogan
despite a worsening economy and now chronic hyperinflation that would likely
bring down any government in a democratic country.
So, how did Erdogan win the election and, more significantly, what is likely to
happen in the country in the foreseeable future?"
