Erdoğan in a sentence

As part of the new deal negotiated by Erdoğan and Putin, Turkey will control a nearly 20-mile deep "safe zone" along its border, clear of the Kurdish militias whom Erdogan's views as a threat.

Erdoğan relies on Borissov, also on Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, to play the role of internal opposition in the EU against those criticising the Turkish operation, and those who find Erdoğan’s continuing insults against the EU intolerable.

A vast and rapid reconstruction plan that would reshape much of the country’s south destroyed during recent earthquakes formed a central plank of Erdoğan’s campaign for re-election.

A wave of stimulus measures unleashed by President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan ahead of May’s election is fuelling a fresh bout of inflation even as the country’s new economic management team attempts to restore “rational” policymaking.

Azerbaijan’s President İlham Aliyev had a phone conversation with Erdoğan to personally extend his congratulations and invited him for a visit to Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan.

Critics of Mr. Erdoğan worry he may not accept a defeat.

Due to the fact that a large part of the Turkish media is directly or indirectly controlled by Erdoğan, and thus there is no real freedom of information, foreign observers have also expressed concerns about the fairness of the elections.

Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi was among the heads of state that extended condolences to President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan for the victims of the devastating earthquakes which killed more than 44,000 people.

Either way, after the most significant challenge to his supremacy since he rose to power in Turkey two decades ago, Erdoğan is president again, winning yesterday’s runoff election by 52% to 48%, a margin of more than 2m votes.

Erdoğan also recalled that local elections will be held in March 2024 and that the AKP will focus on winning municipal polls using the psychological superiority stemming from May 2023 polls.

Erdoğan emphasized that they are working day and night for a that is not a follower but a pioneer, producing, not consuming, what is offered to it in culture like other fields.

Erdoğan gave the assurance in reaction to the question of whether he will cling to power if he loses.

Erdoğan had first lavished a Turkish-made electric vehicle on Orbán during the strongman love-in.

Erdoğan has taken tight control of most of Turkey's institutions and sidelined traditional liberals, according to critics.

Erdoğan said: “With the power we derive from this love, this bond of affection between us, we will first, inshallah, pass the test of 2023 successfully.

Erdoğan, who has ruled the country for two decades, thanked Turks for voting and declared as the only winner in the runoff presidential election.
