Well put together. As an Imamoglu voter, I think France24’s news about the recent elections are right on point
Good luck. Don't let Erdogan seize more power. Europe needs a stable democratic partner in Turkey.
And frankly, whatever the mistakes of the Ottomans were, the Middle East needs a democratic stable Turkey as well.
CIA bot.
wha do you say ARAB@@glenbolderson9279
Hope for Democracy, hope for Turkiye
Sure CIA boy.
@@glenbolderson9279 😅 paranoid boy
Why france24 focuses on YRP so much? Yes, they
got 6%; but, why they get all the coverage? Isn’t it interesting enough that CHP won the highest share and won cities considered as ‘conservative’? Isn’t it interesting enough that CHP went through a leadership change just a few months ago? Yes, Turkey is a Muslim dominant country; but, not an Islamic state at core. If being not enough Islamic is the problem here; there is no one other than Erdoğan who can play that card the best.
They have other videos about them, you should have checked it before you wrote :)
Everyone talked about CHP. It should be interesting to learn about YRP for the non-Turkish audience. What is wrong here?
Although I lived abroad for 25 years, I am a Turkish citizen who follows Turkish politics very closely and she is right on point. Too much infact. Opposition should use her insight and foresight since sometimes they have problem seeing the bigger picture.
The Sultan is falling.
How Sultan looses election. He is prezident
Self appointed people eventually crumble , like others in the region.. hopefully he has more dignity and act like a respectful person not a corrupt leader or a leader dictating with fear, and even they end up in a hole.. and found
@@Geronimo2u he is elected, you fool
Its not shock, its results of extensive and long-term pressure over the secular Turkish people.
Hold on , this women was expert on Indian election this week expert on Turkey election 😅😂
She doesn't drink too much gomutra apparently
She is authority on economics and electoral politics. .if you understand that
I'm from Turkey and she is on point. She is more informed than possibly most of Erdogan voters.
Macha, go and watch some more godi TV.
@@EnesKaraboga bcuz she support your view point that's why .😂😂😂😂
she summarızed very well.
First class analysis.
CIA bot.
@@glenbolderson9279 This seems to be the only response you can manage to leave! It of course, displays your total lack of any analytical reflection or thought!
Good news except the rise of Erbakan. Erdoğan is a poser Islamist while Erbakan is the dangerous hardcore version.
YRP has had an insanely good run for a newly established party. I think that YRP opposes no threat, AND they make AKP lose. I don't support Erbakan but I don't think that he's worse than Erdoğan. They worked very hard to get that 6%, and they didn't cheat as far as I know. Props to them.
Yeah but hardcore versions don't make it in Turkey. At least with true islamists you know what to expect. Unlike Erdoğan, who is capable of anything and everything. However, I despise both them. Damn I hate religion.
He has no chance trust me no more religious people going on presidential rule
Well, if they stick with their own little party instead of making bigger parties like AKP winner with their votes and have a word inside AKP, I believe they'll be more useful and less dangerous for secularity. Unpreferrable but, even AKP itself could become more rational and collaborative for a secular governance if they lose their hardcore islamist voters completely, as they won't have to be poser anymore.
Hardcore islamists in Turkey has always been a very small minority and they will keep shrinking as newer generations increasing their immunity to such nonsense, thanks to the age of information.
The analyst is quite good. Next Amanpour? 😊
I agree with my fellow Turkish citizens that have commented. This professional is extremely well informed and spot on, on her analysis.
Missing information: YRP is remake of original Refah Party which was Erdogan'a first party. Erdogan and elite AKP personas started their career in RP. Erdogan claimed that he has changed and then found his AKP. RP is agresively Islamists. Also current YRP leader is son of original RP leader.
She just said all of this
This was a very well presented analysis of the political situation, the lady in question, is very well informed.
Thank you
Let this election be a sociology lesson to the world. A story of the new hope 😊
Old ideas are gone for Turkiye...well done xxx
As a Secular Turk it was an amazing surprise for us! And this win has nothing to do with kurdish party they refused to form an alliance, in fact they wanted to make Imamoglu lose in Istanbul. The public has spoken :)
It took decades for left wing parties to join forces. That is what helped the rise of right wing. It in no way will be easy for CHP to join forces with Kurdish voters and their party. One day at a time. It is little steps of progress before you gallop into national well being sealed with solidarity.
@@Cafe1981 No one wants an alliance with the Kurdish party because they have ties to the PKK. Everyone wants the Kurdish vote, it goes to the Kurdish party, no one wants to have ties to them, Kurds think everyone hates them, so the loop contiunes.
Türkiye still has hope . We believe democracy
Nice song
By the way, in the internationally unrecognized Republic of Somaliland, located in northern Somalia, presidential elections will be held on November 13th. I hope you will cover this news on that day. Thank you.
Seems european media seems not so happy with Erdoğans loss
Nobody can defeat Atatürk in this lands. Nation still on his path.
It is Türkiye now! 😆 Tur-key-yeh.
Sinirleme arkadas. Daha önemli sorunlarimiz var. Ben Amerikada yasiyorum. Herkes hala Turkey diyor. Hiç takmam kafama. Kendi memeletindeki eyaletlerin nerede oldugunu bilmeyen insanlardan baska bekleyemezsin.
Kılıçdaroğlu was a very weak candidate, that’s the only reason why opposition lost. Turkish people were against his candidacy but he forced himself as candidate.
indian lady is an expert all of a sudden in turkish elections :)
I have a strong suspicion that she his an expert on her feild of political science/history. And believe it or not some of them are women.
Being indian ..
But how can she represent Türkiye politics.. I saw her giving expert analysis on Modi .. is she Human ChatGPT
Political scientist i believe. Definitely an expert on current political history. It is a field of expertise. Some of them are women. Go figure 😂
@@Cafe1981 so if I am a cardiologist can I do surgery of lung or liver …??! Or being space aeronautic engineer can build underwater submarine??,… both are doctors and engineers??
@@neoflying Democracies don't change a lot. A democracy is a democracy. A liver isn't a heart.
@@askosefamerve just like body has many parts needed special doctor ..
Same every country democratic system has different ingredients of social /political /economical/security/strategic interests..needed especially expert ..India and Türkiye both have democratic system but different ingredients ‘mention above…
@@neoflying A political scientist can learn another country's system but a surgeon can only specialize in a couple of organs at most.
Support Independence for CORSICA
So Erdogan lost !? And it wasn’t to another extremists Islamist ?! I just don’t understand Turkeys electorate…..I thought they voted like the Middle Eastern democracies. It’s either one extremist or another. But this was surprising.
!
What decent president changes constitution to serve forever😂 it’s called corruption
It,s way past Jail time for MAGA Cartels El Cheapo.
To add to the answer given to the last question (what changed since the last summer's general elections):
1. The opposition was actually winning the general elections last summer until the last few weeks, according to most polls and analysts.Then, Erdogan deceived the voters showing a fake video at his rally of the opposition leader with terrorists. He even admitted that it was a fake video later.
2. The general elections' outcome is highly influenced by the votes coming from rural areas where the opposition admits not having enough access to the voters, especially given that the public TV network TRT is used by Erdogan as his own propaganda machine. Also, these voters may not have been experiencing the weight of the economic crisis as much as those in big cities at the time.
3. In the local elections, opposition has some charismatic, young leaders on the table, who were able to convince even right wing voters with their positive messages and the quality of their work in the past years as already mayors of the big cities (despite Erdogan's blatant efforts to slow them down by cutting resources, etc.).
4. Erdogan has a new nemesis YRP, who claims to champion the original values of the party Erdogan's party branched out of 20 or so years ago. They are eating Erdogan's party AKP inside out.
What kind of generic bla is that? GPT answer…
Erdogan could respond to this by tightening his grip. Don't get too excited.
Nah it would backlash. He was pretty mild-mannered in his loss speech yesterday. He said that he respects democracy and people's will, he also said they wouldn't be stubborn against the people's will. If he keeps attacking the opposition, he'll surely lose. Right now his only bet is to actually fix the economy in the next few years or wait for the opposition to play their cards stupidly.
This is why he had this defeat anyway, he can’t dare to push more, if he does he will be history
If he did, he would lose even faster
@@mememaster8050in Turkish we have a saying... his tail has gone into his bum bum 😂
It is not about Erdoğan it is about people in Turkey. If Turkish people show they dont want Erdoğan anymore Erdoğan cant do anythink.
Overconfidence not listening to people support od palestinr no help tho palastine only talk speech
Secular Turkey can join EU now
That's a tough one. Most left wing secular Turks are heart broken about that. We feel not wanted. It has been like rowing a boat to nowhere. It almost seems like it doesn't matter that Erdogan stalled the process. It was never going to happen anyway. Secular we can. We truely can. But we are still a predominantly Muslim nation. Not wanted 😢
@youtubecensorship5544Türkiye has sensibly given up a long time ago. No one is licking boots.
DELIGHTED. The sooner he s ousted the better. 🥳
I hope the erdogan period is over
From one autocratic wannabe to an a religious autocracy
Congratulations, Turkish people you got rid of your Trump.
We only wish. Hopeful for the next general elections though
🥳
You wasted your time with YRP
Warning bell for radical Modi.
US Puppy is going down
Great leader
