Thank you bro. We have tired of political Islam. It made us very poor and took a lot of our freedom and rights. We want Imam to be Imam not managers or top institutions. We want university professors to manage country.
@@bpolat Freedom and rights? What is your definition of freedom? And do you think a capitalist or communist system provides more or less freedom? The fact that you can write this comment and criticize the government is already a sign of freedom. Try this in North Korea.
@@TanjirowGhamadow We had so much freedom 20 years ago. Turkey went backward both economically and socially. We used to be 18. spot within G-20 countries now we are merely 22. Education is also big issue. Now we merely make spot with African countries. You compare Turkey with North Korea? I am Turkish i live in Turkey since 43 years. I dont think some random guy on youtube can teach me what happens in Turkey. So keep your comment yourself.
From USA, I wish the best for the people of Turkiye. They have been dealing with the aftermath of earthquakes and inflation. They are a proud and good people and a valuable NATO ally. Irrespective of who wins, I would never count out the strength and will of the Turkish people. Right now is a tough time but long-term, I think Turkiye will do well.
The ruling autocrat president Erdogan is against Nato. He is Islamo Fascist. He does not respect women's or the minoritie's rights. He put 15 year old youngsters and the opposition journalists in to the prisons. Corruption devastetaed Turkey's economy. He made brothers and sisters to fight each other. So it is really a very critical election for Turkey and the Turkish people. 20 yers of ruling by one man devastated the country. He still does not want to lose the president seat and the power. HE MUST GO and HE WILL LOSE THE ELECTIONS.

Give your vote to Kemal and let him win in the first round, and let Erdogan cry early
Very good reporting. Personally and I am not Turkish but I am Muslim and with Arab origins, I would love to see a peaceful transition of power in the region in my lifetime lol. Although Lebanon has that peaceful transition, it is a failed state in many aspects. So let’s see if my wish comes true. Again not for or against anyone, but I really want to see that peaceful transition of power.
Dont be stupid and naive. That artificial earthquake by Israel using HAARP would also knock at ur door step soon. All that severe earthquake was to shackle the people faith in Erdogan. Ya he rule agressively, like Valdimir Putin, Saddam and Gaddafi. But we all know that history has proved always that these agressive rulers were doing nothing but good/best for their coúntry. And once they gone there no one else to handle the way they had handled everything. So O people of Turkey dont fall prey to western idea of secularism and keep all ur faith in Erdogan and allow him to stay in power for few more years. This is not the the time to oust him out of power.
I am proud of my leader Atatürk, I am proud to be a secular country. A country can't have a religion, you can't judge people by saying that they belong to this religion by reaching a general opinion, everyone has their own personal opinion. I don't want to see anything that belongs to any religion in Turkish society, the part about the headscarf is actually in terms of isolating the society from religion, I support it. Azan may be called in Turkey, but bells are ringing too. There are many things that need to be corrected, such as the recitation of the azan in Turkish. My nation is Turkish, we are not arabs, we do not speak arabic.
You claim that a country can't have a religion, yet the majority of all global powers have a strong religious root. For example, Sweden, Norway, Germany, France, Italy, UK, USA and Spain have a very strong religious root, although religious influence is declining.
@@TanjirowGhamadow I think that a country should be free about it. Logically, it does not seem normal to me a country has a religion, it is not smth alive and doesnt have feelings.
@@BengisuPazarci Religion is free in Turkey and all of the countries I mentioned in my previous comment. But to understand you better, what is your definition of free? I assume no one is forcing you to believe in islam or any other religion, right? If you think that religion in a country is not normal, you should read history. All global powers are founded by religious influence. Kemalism is also not alive and doesn't have feelings? What do you mean?
@@TanjirowGhamadow First of all, I don't understand what this has to do with Kemalism. Secondly, individuals are free to believe in any religion they want, but in order to say that a country is religiously free, there should be no compulsory religion classes in that country, and the government in power should not exploit people's religious feelings. Finally, I will touch on the issue of equality and nationalism. In Turkey, the Azan is read, I am not against it, but I support the Turkish reading of the call to prayer, the bells can ring in the same way, or the Jews can be free to celebrate their religious holidays. (I'm talking about 3 divine religions) as a result, I do not support people being forced to learn religious rules in a secular country. I stated that I find it wrong to call everyone Muslim with a general idea in secular countries such as.
@@TanjirowGhamadow 1-Compulsory to take religious classes, 2-Religion cant rule a country but Nationalism or Kemalism can, We are Turks, we live in Turkey, this country was won by Turks with nationalistic feelings, nationalism and patriotism are the cornerstones of a country, without them the eternity of our country is discussed, and eventually we assimilate and disappear from the stage of history (like many states that have disappeared from the stage of history) 3-If a religion rules the country, it prevents its development, if no religion is found in a country and is banned, it prevents cultural diversity, but if a religion does not rule the country, a nation will be raised on the path of civilization away from "reactionary" thoughts. Period.
I think Turkish people need strong leader as their regional position and international influence is very complex. Also western countries don't like to see Turkiye as a powerful country! So Turkish people need to be very careful. Best wishes for them
Not mentioning the Hizullah's party in the Allience of Erdoğan is biast! Hüdapar being the party of Hizbullah the organization that killed many people with torture and bury them alive. They did not mention that party but yet they mentioned yeniden Refah the party that joined after Hüdapar Hiding this reality that Erdoğan gave the visa to the parliement to these torturer and these killers is biast!
In fact, Ak Party was not founded in 1990. In this time Erdoğan and his close friends in Erbakan's party, its name is Welfare Party. Ak Party was founded in August, 2001.
Yeah but mark my words Biden woren US situation as he was blaming Trump for everything bad in USA and the world. If conservatives aren't able to handle then unpopular less intelligent and least smart people can only do worse.
I don’t even believe that You’re Turkish citizen i’m not either let us be curious before Erdogan what Turkey was Nothing they used to buy every single military equipment from outside what about now ?? be honest mate are you from Israel? 😂😂
Great report on Turkey and it's upcoming May Election with Pres Erdoghan political career weighed in the balance considering pending issues with the Economy etc. Keep up the good work at Aljazeera.
AKP was not founded by Mr. Erdogan. It was the reformist of the Refah Party who initiated the new party and then called Mr. Erdogan to join as their leader. He then gradually ousted all those who invited him to the party, first took complete control of the party and took fool control of the country as "one-man", to the point that AKP is an empty shell without him.
Kılıçdaroğlu is the strongest candidate for presidency but, in this video, there is almost no information about his political position or the ideological standpoint of his party. very basic info such as his strong secularist vision and his social democratic/ central leftist position were not even mentioned. he was just introduced as someone who will run for presidency against Erdoğan :DD so not in the active subject position. one of the reporters just said sth like he is not as macho as Erdogan😄 thanks for sharing this very crucial info above all other things😁
Great point, i was actually waiting on a report with facts but who ever produced this must have been thinking we need to be emotional during all of this havoc and turmoil.
Of coarse it seems more like a war this is the way Turkish politics is especially when they don't get what they want ,look what happened in North Africa, eastern Mediteranean, aegean, Syria, Nagorno Karabakh, India, Georgia, plays around with America and Russia and especially with the Kurds what do you expect ..
@@lou6749 before Erdogan, it was different. All of the politicians were kind and polite. He destroyed nice Turkish culture. And he has brought “hate” culture to Turkey.
Well because this lowkey is a war. The country is very divided and this election can actually create a potential civil war as a consequence win or loss.
Wide spectrum of the political parties may have united against erdogan but their vote bases may not be so. At least not "that widely enough' to beat Erdogan. This is the main issue ardent opponents opt to ignore

Keeping anyone in power for so long is not beneficial to any nation. This happened in Australia for many years as the Labor Party were kept in power by a charismatic leader. How is freedom of speech going in Turkey at the moment, how is the economy and the Lira? The current regime in Turkey imprisons more members of the media than any other nation in the world. Has people's standard of living improved, can common people afford to live with comfort in their own homeland or has inflation made life difficult? Turkey should have been voted into the EU years ago but it keeps identifying Greece as a "common enemy" which is nothing but a smoke-screen for keeping "strong" Erdogan in power causing division and fear. Giving one person so much power for so long has been ruinous for Turkey. Now is the time to vote this man out. A progressive Turkey is good for everyone.
I strongly agree as a Turkish citizen. Erdoğan is doing the exact opposite of what our founder Atatürk has told us a century ago "If a day comes that my words are against science, choose science." What a great man Atatürk was.
I Knew Erdogan As A Great Leader and A Leader Hated By Most of The "West" Which Makes Him The Best Choice For Turkish people But My Question is can Turkiye Efford To Power Transition While Turkiye is In an unpredictable Economic situation By The Aftermath of Earthquake Happened in February ?? May Allah Make Turkiye Great Again And Not Give Power To The Hands of Any incapable Leaders
Turkiyë should invest in exporting its pop culture and use it as a soft power tool on the global stage. Somewhat like ROK has successfully done. Although it might not change people's lives immediately, I do believe this is a smart way of attracting foreign investment and tourism to boost the local economy.
Turkey has been exporting soft power much longer than you think. It reaches Turkic nations and ex ottomon territory as well as surrounding areas. Turkish dramas reach all the way to Brazil, and from Russians to arabs to Indians all grew up listening to Turkish music. These are just some of the examples. In fact, Turkeys soft power is arguably its biggest advantage in the international stage currently. If you factor in other important things such as being worlds top tourism destination, it's rich cuisine and popular language, you have a top 5 world soft power. Most western don't realise this but ask any Middle Eastern, Pakistani, Eastern European and you will have a clearer understanding
@@Intellectualodysseyai Absolutely agree with you! Actually, I never said anything about its soft power being weak. In fact, it is precisely because of the turkish soap operas broadcasted in Brasil that made this comment. I'm really just saying to invest more, doesn't meant to say that it isn't doing so.
as a American I have noticed over the last decade people have been watching more and more Turkish TV shows. I dont think we have heard any of the music though. We have some of their citizens as celebs... I think Dr OZ is Turkish.
Thanks Sandra, I'm really enjoying your effort to revealed what's happening around world 🌎. Plz You should do an episode on education in Africa and what are the kind of backwardness that African youths are facing in terms of education
now some turkish people forget that Turkey was the poorest country in Europe until Erdogan came, He raised your country economically and power fully, but some people are most ungrateful, and that will reason cause the kingdom to perish again, Be careful.
You are absolutely right about I leave outside turkiye before Erdogan turkiye was 3rd world country no divided roads no hospitals hospitals use to smell dirty restroom no enough equipment big line for to seeing doctor never enough time to get check up they tell you come back tomorrow then go to line for medicine your turn comes no enough medicine left my mom was sick year 2001 any way I'm telling you because I was there last time I visit turkiye 2019 with my kids my kids was sick I took him to the hospital I really shocked all new equipment compared to us hospital we found turkiye first class service in er same as airports before whoever flies they use to call them rich nowadays everyone flying I think this is a few what Erdogan done for turkiye
Absolute power corrupts absolutely. Hope to see a peaceful election and governmental change. There are a lot of challenges waiting to be handled by the new government. Best wishes to them.
the opposition winning will be the worse thing that will happen to turkey since losing in ww1. Erdogan is bad in some ways, yes. But the opposition is a complete disaster.
Independent?😂 No not at all. He's reliant on foreign depts making the economic crisis worse. And to me, the worst of all: whilst the wildfire was destroying the country in 2021 Erdogan wasn't prepared at all just like at the earthquake. So he lent fire fighting plane from over 10 countries, among them Isreal, France, Germany, Greece etc. And he had seriously the gutts the say thank you to Israel for is planes on Instagram after he criticised Isreal for killing Palestinians a few months back in Ramadan. To make matters worse Erdogan possesses 13 private jets!!! He only is interested in himself. And you would definitely like to live in the US rather than in Turkey, since the economy of the US is much better than Turkey with over 80% inflation.... if that's your vision of independent than you've been lied to
it is also a very tiny factor that while the votes are still being counted in the last local election, the unsealed votes (in the order of the people who will vote) are considered valid^^and this practice will continue at next elections.
Unless the unsealed votes are proved to be brought from outside. For this reason, members of the opposition in voting areas and voters in general should check every ballot right from the beginning. If it is not sealed already, they should warn the officers. This was done quite well in 2018 and 2019 after the bad experience in 2017.
All I would like to see a FAIR electio! I am okay with either parties who can make our people's living standards better. I am annoyed to see in a VIDEO, President Biden is saying that Erdogan should "GO" that is none of his or anyone elses business to stick their noses into other nations BUSINESS! Let's all respect the votes of Turkish people! Let's all countries to be FREE of inflaunce of the USA, EU and others! Let countries to be FREE to manage their own affairs!
Biden has never said that Erdogan should “go” - either you're misinformed or making up stuff. Moreover, you say that no one should “stick their noses into other nations' business”, but at the same time, Erdogan is constantly sticking his nose into other nations' business!
This report unfortunately does not accurately reflect the actual situation. Many things were misunderstood by the authors (to put it nicely). The opposition situation is completely fragile and cobbled together in a makeshift way. The parties involved have fundamentally different starting points and programs. A takeover by this "coalition" would mean a setback of several decades for Turkey. The HDP is also not the representation of the Kurds in Turkey. The HDP is a left-radical party that is directly in union with the PKK and other militant terrorist organizations. Regarding the issue of ethnicity, the AKP has more Kurdish voters than the foreign-controlled HDP. Even fans of the CHP are convinced by surveys that the AKP can competently solve the current world economic problems affecting Turkey better than their own party. Kilicdaroglu is anything but a democrat when considering his leadership style within the CHP.
maybe they are more critical because people in Turkey have become more critical? Ever think of that? Almost as if the news is reporting on how people think / contemporary political climates...

I think we can’t blame Erdogan for Türkiye economic worsening. For example, COVID-19 has its own share in this, Ukraine vs Russia war has another share, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Western enemies and allies all have hands in this. What Erdogan did is restoring the stage of Turkiye and Turkish in the world order. Just modernized their military, foreign policy, and identity which were all stolen by the West in disguise of democracy and modernity. Kudos for Erdogan and his people!
All of his false.. He decreased the interest rates, that forced the people buy dolar, gold or real products that economy can not produce enough. So tl devalued as a result. He spent all of the dolar reserve for keeping tl unearned high value. Central bank has no dolar reserve because of his stupidity right now. You know nothing about turkey or him, so stop talking.
100 per cent right. Turkiye has been under silent embargo by the west and gulf countries except Qatar in the last decade and also its currency has been under attack. Syrian war caused a lot if problems as well. This election is make or break for Turks. If they lose, they are back to square 1. If they win, it is their century..

I’m agree that economy is not very well right now, but I’m sure that only Erdogan come overall, the other coalition doesn’t have any vision, any plans for the future of Turkiye, and for sure western countries they don’t want Erdogan be elected again, because western countries they want a president to be slave for them. I’m proud of our president who’s really strong political person, so. Continue with Erdogan….

Why is this debate mostly on reliogion and secularism should it not be on who will be better for the upliftment of turkey,when I visited turkey like 10 15 years ago,i saw a note of 1 million tl turkish currency note which had no value but now even the 100 tl currency note is valuable,yeah i agree that inflation is on the rise there compared to other countries it is less.
Not only the currency changed (loosing zeros) under erdogan but also the jnflation rate is at 50% which is an absurd number for an economy the size of turkiye.
Because Erdoğan mostly uses religion in order get the support of religious and uninformed citizens. Normally, his actions and incompetence should have created a strong reaction among the citizens;however, 40% of the citizens who are blinded by the religion use it to justify his unacceptable actions. Erdoğan is a thief and a killer but he hides behind religion. Currently, turkey had enough of religion being mixed with politics.

She called akp voters blind but the ones not voting for akp anymore are slowly getting their vision back. This is not good reporting because it is a biased/loaded statement. Good reporting is impartial. She also needs respect and call the country by its name which is Turkiye, not Turkey the anglo given name of a bird that has nothing to do with the Turk people/nation.
I hope there is a point of that. Even after Erdogan is gone, upcoming government need to carry massive burden. And they seem not care about justice in the country. So it is going to be more messed up. Government members just need to do their job instead of presenting a show to the country.

Turkish political atmosphere is complicated af
Erdogan has done a lot of good for our country. During the time when the opposition was in power, getting medication was difficult, and we had to wait for days in line at the hospital. Simple operations could take months to schedule, and the infrastructure was poor. The government struggled to pay the salaries of civil servants and retirees, and there were frequent shortages of gas, petrol, food, and water. The country was plagued with instability due to frequent coups. Today, however, we have hospitals in every city, excellent infrastructure, including highways, train stations, airports, and ports. Erdogan has transformed our healthcare system by building new hospitals in major cities, and our national security has improved with the introduction of drones, tanks, and other technologies. Our defense industry has never been stronger, and we have fully paid off our state debt to the IMF. It's worth noting that some opposition political leaders openly support the PKK, which is a designated terrorist organization in Turkey, the EU, and the US. This is comparable to a political member in other countries defending ISIS, which is unacceptable and outrageous. Turkey has achieved many impressive projects under Erdogan's leadership, including Istanbul Airport, Istanbul Canal, Marmaray Tunnel, Yavuz Sultan Selim Bridge (the longest suspension bridge in the world with a total length of 2,164 meters), and various housing projects.( The houses built by the government did not collapse. Most of the houses destroyed by the earthquake were built by contractors who cut corners on the steel reinforcement of the buildings to make extra profit.) We have also developed our own electric car and produced our own drones, tanks, and missiles. Those who oppose Erdogan may not want to see a strong and independent Turkey.
Regularly following Al Jazeera's reports on Turkey, I am disappointed that a homogenous, unnuanced “conservatives vs. secularists” divide has gained currency to describe Turkish politics again. The report touches upon the case of HDP at some point, and that’s it. What about the religious, confessional, and even regional polarizations and enmity that cut across the divide? What about centuries-old stigmas, otherization, and the lack of social equality? This election's result may alter Turkey's well-established and well-preserved bureaucratic and social structures. We deserve more detailed coverage 😊

Bro we want educated, soft spoken, peaceful candidates but Turkey is not offer us such persons. We are forced to choose between two candidates, just like Macron in France. There were 2 candidates who easly defeat Erdogan but still he doesnt want it.
If Kemal changed Turkiye back to parliamentary system, who's future prime minister candidate? In parliamentary, PM is one in charge and president more like symbolic, right?
True, president will be symbolic and the PM will be selected by parliament. They say any additional elections will not be necessary. Probably goverment will be formed with current parliament of that time.
Leader of IYI Party, Meral Akşener, is the biggest ally of Mr. Kilicdaroglu. Probably he will appoint her as the PM until the next elections and she will form her government as a coalition from members of IYI Party, CHP, and maybe few members from the 4 remaining minor alliance parties.
I was expecting also the perspective "Why Kilicdaroglu might lose" There are many reasons that he will lose. I.e. one of the reason why people still vote for erdogan is Kilicdaroglu is so imcompetient so people do not believe he can solve the problems.
This is the problem idiot. We do not want "one" person to fix everything. We want a functioning democracy and institutions fixing things. IF you love him that much take him and shut up.
And Erdogan is such a skilled economist ? And brilliant at managing the Lira? He is woefully incompetent! Who was the Exchequer? His son in law. Speaks volumes. The people will vote for change.
This is good, someone at last decided to put a near realistic light on the situation at hand. Erdogan is authoritarian but Turkey still remains a democracy in its core. He might lose and with enough voter margin, he would be forced to leave in silence. Voter difference plays a role here of course. Turkey is not autocracy, but he is an authoritarian for sure. They are not necessarily same thing.

Very good reporting. Personally and I am not Turkish but I am Muslim and with Arab origins, I would love to see a peaceful transition of power in the region in my lifetime lol. Although Lebanon has that peaceful transition, it is a failed state in many aspects. So let’s see if my wish comes true. Again not for or against anyone, but I really want to see that peaceful transition of power.
Dont be stupid and naive. That artificial earthquake by Israel using HAARP would also knock at ur door step soon. All that severe earthquake was to shackle the people faith in Erdogan. Ya he rule agressively, like Valdimir Putin, Saddam and Gaddafi. But we all know that history has proved always that these agressive rulers were doing nothing but good/best for their coúntry. And once they gone there no one else to handle the way they had handled everything.
So O people of Turkey dont fall prey to western idea of secularism and keep all ur faith in Erdogan and allow him to stay in power for few more years. This is not the the time to oust him out of power.
Lebanon peacful? Hahahahaj stop gaslighting about our country..
Shut up with your talking
Why brings islam everywhere.
Are you comparing Libnun with Turkiye. ? 🤔
I am proud of my leader Atatürk, I am proud to be a secular country. A country can't have a religion, you can't judge people by saying that they belong to this religion by reaching a general opinion, everyone has their own personal opinion. I don't want to see anything that belongs to any religion in Turkish society, the part about the headscarf is actually in terms of isolating the society from religion, I support it. Azan may be called in Turkey, but bells are ringing too. There are many things that need to be corrected, such as the recitation of the azan in Turkish. My nation is Turkish, we are not arabs, we do not speak arabic.
You claim that a country can't have a religion, yet the majority of all global powers have a strong religious root. For example, Sweden, Norway, Germany, France, Italy, UK, USA and Spain have a very strong religious root, although religious influence is declining.
@@TanjirowGhamadow I think that a country should be free about it. Logically, it does not seem normal to me a country has a religion, it is not smth alive and doesnt have feelings.
@@BengisuPazarci Religion is free in Turkey and all of the countries I mentioned in my previous comment. But to understand you better, what is your definition of free? I assume no one is forcing you to believe in islam or any other religion, right? If you think that religion in a country is not normal, you should read history. All global powers are founded by religious influence. Kemalism is also not alive and doesn't have feelings? What do you mean?
@@TanjirowGhamadow First of all, I don't understand what this has to do with Kemalism. Secondly, individuals are free to believe in any religion they want, but in order to say that a country is religiously free, there should be no compulsory religion classes in that country, and the government in power should not exploit people's religious feelings. Finally, I will touch on the issue of equality and nationalism. In Turkey, the Azan is read, I am not against it, but I support the Turkish reading of the call to prayer, the bells can ring in the same way, or the Jews can be free to celebrate their religious holidays. (I'm talking about 3 divine religions) as a result, I do not support people being forced to learn religious rules in a secular country. I stated that I find it wrong to call everyone Muslim with a general idea in secular countries such as.
@@TanjirowGhamadow 1-Compulsory to take religious classes, 2-Religion cant rule a country but Nationalism or Kemalism can, We are Turks, we live in Turkey, this country was won by Turks with nationalistic feelings, nationalism and patriotism are the cornerstones of a country, without them the eternity of our country is discussed, and eventually we assimilate and disappear from the stage of history (like many states that have disappeared from the stage of history) 3-If a religion rules the country, it prevents its development, if no religion is found in a country and is banned, it prevents cultural diversity, but if a religion does not rule the country, a nation will be raised on the path of civilization away from "reactionary" thoughts. Period.
I think Turkish people need strong leader as their regional position and international influence is very complex. Also western countries don't like to see Turkiye as a powerful country! So Turkish people need to be very careful. Best wishes for them

He then gradually ousted all those who invited him to the party, first took complete control of the party and took fool control of the country as "one-man", to the point that AKP is an empty shell without him.

I don’t know what your nation will decide, but I would definitely go for vote great leader Erdogan ever.
Keeping anyone in power for so long is not beneficial to any nation. This happened in Australia for many years as the Labor Party were kept in power by a charismatic leader. How is freedom of speech going in Turkey at the moment, how is the economy and the Lira? The current regime in Turkey imprisons more members of the media than any other nation in the world. Has people's standard of living improved, can common people afford to live with comfort in their own homeland or has inflation made life difficult? Turkey should have been voted into the EU years ago but it keeps identifying Greece as a "common enemy" which is nothing but a smoke-screen for keeping "strong" Erdogan in power causing division and fear. Giving one person so much power for so long has been ruinous for Turkey. Now is the time to vote this man out. A progressive Turkey is good for everyone.
This is Turkish people’s decision
I strongly agree as a Turkish citizen. Erdoğan is doing the exact opposite of what our founder Atatürk has told us a century ago "If a day comes that my words are against science, choose science." What a great man Atatürk was.
I Knew Erdogan As A Great Leader and A Leader Hated By Most of The "West" Which Makes Him The Best Choice For Turkish people
But My Question is can Turkiye Efford To Power Transition While Turkiye is In an unpredictable Economic situation By The Aftermath of Earthquake Happened in February ??
May Allah Make Turkiye Great Again And Not Give Power To The Hands of Any incapable Leaders
Turkiyë should invest in exporting its pop culture and use it as a soft power tool on the global stage. Somewhat like ROK has successfully done. Although it might not change people's lives immediately, I do believe this is a smart way of attracting foreign investment and tourism to boost the local economy.
Turkey has been exporting soft power much longer than you think. It reaches Turkic nations and ex ottomon territory as well as surrounding areas. Turkish dramas reach all the way to Brazil, and from Russians to arabs to Indians all grew up listening to Turkish music. These are just some of the examples. In fact, Turkeys soft power is arguably its biggest advantage in the international stage currently. If you factor in other important things such as being worlds top tourism destination, it's rich cuisine and popular language, you have a top 5 world soft power. Most western don't realise this but ask any Middle Eastern, Pakistani, Eastern European and you will have a clearer understanding
@@Intellectualodysseyai Absolutely agree with you! Actually, I never said anything about its soft power being weak. In fact, it is precisely because of the turkish soap operas broadcasted in Brasil that made this comment. I'm really just saying to invest more, doesn't meant to say that it isn't doing so.
I also agree with you
as a American I have noticed over the last decade people have been watching more and more Turkish TV shows. I dont think we have heard any of the music though. We have some of their citizens as celebs... I think Dr OZ is Turkish.

it is also a very tiny factor that while the votes are still being counted in the last local election, the unsealed votes (in the order of the people who will vote) are considered valid^^and this practice will continue at next elections.
Unless the unsealed votes are proved to be brought from outside.
For this reason, members of the opposition in voting areas and voters in general should check every ballot right from the beginning. If it is not sealed already, they should warn the officers. This was done quite well in 2018 and 2019 after the bad experience in 2017.

This report unfortunately does not accurately reflect the actual situation. Many things were misunderstood by the authors (to put it nicely). The opposition situation is completely fragile and cobbled together in a makeshift way. The parties involved have fundamentally different starting points and programs. A takeover by this "coalition" would mean a setback of several decades for Turkey. The HDP is also not the representation of the Kurds in Turkey. The HDP is a left-radical party that is directly in union with the PKK and other militant terrorist organizations. Regarding the issue of ethnicity, the AKP has more Kurdish voters than the foreign-controlled HDP. Even fans of the CHP are convinced by surveys that the AKP can competently solve the current world economic problems affecting Turkey better than their own party. Kilicdaroglu is anything but a democrat when considering his leadership style within the CHP.

He spent all of the dolar reserve for keeping tl unearned high value. Central bank has no dolar reserve because of his stupidity right now.

Sometimes Change is necessary.
Turkey's situation is almost same as India's situation right now. India's 2024 election will also be a turning point because if narendra modi retains the gov, India will be on the road to disaster, but if Indian people choose Rahul Gandhi as their Prime minister, I will consider Indian people more intelligent working in a democracy than turkiye.
Although I don't know a lot about India political environment, I know one thing that conservative, or nationalist party is getting stronger. And unfortunately, on the contrary of the common belief, Modi will win again, good luck to you. Beware! The end of the tunnel leads to a terrible place ( I know because my country just went through the similar tunnel.)
I %100 confirm all of the information given in the video is true, but, there is a missing part. other than the seculars and conservatives, there is a third side in Turkish politics. and that be the "%10-12" that was explained in the video. what's funny is they are also divided into seculars and conservatives. Turkish political atmosphere is complicated af
Erdogan has done a lot of good for our country.
During the time when the opposition was in power, getting medication was difficult, and we had to wait for days in line at the hospital. Simple operations could take months to schedule, and the infrastructure was poor. The government struggled to pay the salaries of civil servants and retirees, and there were frequent shortages of gas, petrol, food, and water. The country was plagued with instability due to frequent coups.
Today, however, we have hospitals in every city, excellent infrastructure, including highways, train stations, airports, and ports. Erdogan has transformed our healthcare system by building new hospitals in major cities, and our national security has improved with the introduction of drones, tanks, and other technologies. Our defense industry has never been stronger, and we have fully paid off our state debt to the IMF.
It's worth noting that some opposition political leaders openly support the PKK, which is a designated terrorist organization in Turkey, the EU, and the US. This is comparable to a political member in other countries defending ISIS, which is unacceptable and outrageous.
Turkey has achieved many impressive projects under Erdogan's leadership, including Istanbul Airport, Istanbul Canal, Marmaray Tunnel, Yavuz Sultan Selim Bridge (the longest suspension bridge in the world with a total length of 2,164 meters), and various housing projects.( The houses built by the government did not collapse. Most of the houses destroyed by the earthquake were built by contractors who cut corners on the steel reinforcement of the buildings to make extra profit.) We have also developed our own electric car and produced our own drones, tanks, and missiles. Those who oppose Erdogan may not want to see a strong and independent Turkey.
Absolutely agree . Erdogan is man of all Islam. May Allah Bless him.
He is doing just fine no matter what people think best president ever
you're not Turkish, so cut the bullshit. It's none of your business.
Regularly following Al Jazeera's reports on Turkey, I am disappointed that a homogenous, unnuanced “conservatives vs. secularists” divide has gained currency to describe Turkish politics again. The report touches upon the case of HDP at some point, and that’s it. What about the religious, confessional, and even regional polarizations and enmity that cut across the divide? What about centuries-old stigmas, otherization, and the lack of social equality? This election's result may alter Turkey's well-established and well-preserved bureaucratic and social structures. We deserve more detailed coverage 😊
Good work Aljazeera keep it up let Allah the Almighty give the best rewards to the owner(s)of this channel
It is the time for a change.
Change what?
@В Поисках Правды change president as a turkish person Erdoğan must go Erdoğan is a big mafia persecuting the Turkish people

Absolutely. I agree with you. Even in African countries are changing after every 10 year's. But in turkiye laws doesn't have values.
Am from Somalia and I support Rejep dayib
it is too funny when you hear the west caring about democracy and they have forgotten who supported the military coup in our Egypt and who is supporting the different dictators in Saudi arabia, UAE, Bahrain , Tunisia , Yemen and so on .
I don’t think Al Jazeera plotted and carried out the Egyptian coup
I hope you’re not referring to Al jazeera here 😂 its qatari

As a Turkish citizen,I hope in the 2nd round,the children of the republic will win.We don’t want Syrians and ARABS.We follow the principles of Atatürk since 1923.NOTHING WILL LAST FOREVER.The important thing is that they go without further destructiveness.God bless all of Atatürk children.
As a Bengali Muslim, we want the Khilafat to be fully established once again, the liberation of the oppressed Muslim community
No one can fill Erdoğan shoes

@@bluejean6185 ah ok💀
I hate when people say that Ataturk made religious people feel marginalized.. He straight up killed religious leaders to achieve his western outlook of turkey and made us an economic guarddog for the western society.

We as citizens of Indonesia 🇮🇩, Malaysia🇲🇾, Brunei Darussalam🇧🇳, Singapore 🇸🇬 Maldives🇲🇻 Fully Support Mr President Recep Toyyib Erdogan WE LOVE YOU TURKIYE 🇹🇷 And MR.PRESIDENT ERDOGAN 🇮🇩🇲🇾🇧🇳🇸🇬🇲🇻 ❤️🇹🇷 From PACIFIC ISLAND
Write 5 reasons why you support him
Erdogan caused widespread inflation and economic collapse. He arrested thousands of innocent mothers with babies and silenced the media. You are of course brainwashed.
Hello Turkish national...... Kindly vote for the right person who can bring positive change for the nations instead of going backward
The only way they can go forward is don't get religion mixed up with politics and being aggressive in the region ..

There wont be change, its all the same. Its sad. Wish we had a real candidate to vote for, that would bring change...
Bro we want educated, soft spoken, peaceful candidates but Turkey is not offer us such persons. We are forced to choose between two candidates, just like Macron in France. There were 2 candidates who easly defeat Erdogan but still he doesnt want it.
@@youfacenietzsche9327 what is so special about erdogan don't people know any better wondering..
If Kemal changed Turkiye back to parliamentary system, who's future prime minister candidate? In parliamentary, PM is one in charge and president more like symbolic, right?
True, president will be symbolic and the PM will be selected by parliament. They say any additional elections will not be necessary. Probably goverment will be formed with current parliament of that time.
I will explain first of all he's going to be change in 2 years and after that elections will be happen.
Leader of IYI Party, Meral Akşener, is the biggest ally of Mr. Kilicdaroglu. Probably he will appoint her as the PM until the next elections and she will form her government as a coalition from members of IYI Party, CHP, and maybe few members from the 4 remaining minor alliance parties.
I was expecting also the perspective "Why Kilicdaroglu might lose" There are many reasons that he will lose. I.e. one of the reason why people still vote for erdogan is Kilicdaroglu is so imcompetient so people do not believe he can solve the problems.
Cry morw
This is the problem idiot. We do not want "one" person to fix everything. We want a functioning democracy and institutions fixing things. IF you love him that much take him and shut up.
This whole video makes no sense
And Erdogan is such a skilled economist ? And brilliant at managing the Lira? He is woefully incompetent! Who was the Exchequer? His son in law. Speaks volumes. The people will vote for change.
@@davidjma7226do you live in İstanbul no
solid reporting
Sağlam terörist HDP❤CHP
This is good, someone at last decided to put a near realistic light on the situation at hand. Erdogan is authoritarian but Turkey still remains a democracy in its core. He might lose and with enough voter margin, he would be forced to leave in silence. Voter difference plays a role here of course. Turkey is not autocracy, but he is an authoritarian for sure. They are not necessarily same thing.
