It's time for turkiye to implement sharia law too much influence from westetn infidels
no thank you, we dont want turkish zelensky. if you like zelenskies so much you can take it up to your room. no.
Dictator erdogan
PEOPLE POWER πΉπ·πͺπΉπ·πͺπΉπ·πͺπΉπ·
That exactly what happened in syria and back then erdogan supported the rebeals against the government of assad in order to bring democracy to syria (thats absolutely wrong cuz erdogan sent thousands of islamist jihadists to syria) .. but when those protests happen in turkey demanding for democracy erdogan describes it as a ter*rorists movements ..
HYPOCRISY !!
It seems Erdogan was desperate to take such actions. Turkish people didn't appreciate his brutal actions.
speaking of a backfire
Hypocrites are critiquing turkey but ignore the situation in Romania. Double standards
Stop saying hundreds of thousands. Millions. Millions and millions
What a powerful nation β€πͺπ
Turks seem to have no idea what a genuine Fascist looks like. Um..
Same as 'Woke' Flying Monkeys lol, who use it as a Slogan to shut down criticism.
A mirror of the Far Left Genocides.
Let's go back to basics…Erdogan is a Fascist.
And 'Woke' Narcissists have Fascistic traits, and 'Project' them onto the Right.
Same Venezuelan elections playbook. Get rid of solid candidates, divide the opposition.
Only way out: opposition will have to unite and find a common candidate. Even so, if Erdogan wants to hold power he will find the way.
This is a coup!
Great Erdogan πΉπ·πͺ
Bangladesh, pakistan, indonesia, azarbaijan with you β€οΈ mr president. Don't worry, keep your work against terorist Ekrem imamoglu,
Great move. Erdogan's buggared now.
ErdoΔan is a ruthless autocrat who doesnβt care about human lives
Recep Tayyip ErdoΔan is the perfect example of a power-obsessed politician who cares neither for democracy nor the well-being of his people. This man literally walks over corpses if it benefits him personally or politically. Whether through brutal police violence against protesters, unscrupulous military operations, or support for terrorist militias ErdoΔan has blood on his hands, all just to secure his own power.
But thatβs not all: Under his leadership, Turkey is hurtling toward an economic disaster with eyes wide open. Inflation is devouring citizensβ savings, the lira is practically worthless, and businesses are fighting for survival. Instead of seeking competent solutions, ErdoΔan offers absurd advice like βSwitch to goldβ or βPray moreβ a grotesque mockery of the suffering population.
And anyone who dares to denounce these injustices is immediately silenced. Media censorship, arbitrary arrests of journalists, and a climate of fear are the tools of this regime. Critical voices are smeared as traitors, independent media is muzzled or outright taken over. What remains is a synchronized propaganda machine that mindlessly amplifies ErdoΔanβs delusions of grandeur.
He is a power-hungry autocrat driving his country into the abyss while basking in his palace. Turkey deserves better, and the world should finally stop pandering to this tyrant. Down with ErdoΔan before he destroys even more!
He declared himself by bribery and corruption

Turkey cannot be governed through conspiracies! If you seize the will of the people, the country cannot stand and will inevitably be dragged into chaos. Turkey's future depends on justice and democracy!
3 most famous leaders in prison
There are no candidates btw, only one runner. So democracy like North Korea, you can vote for Imamoglu or Imamoglu but nothing will change cause his own party members recorded him and testifying against him. There is no elections in Turkiye btw this guy realized he is going to jail then he showed up like this, so he threaten Erdogan, if you don't cover up my crimes I will start a civil uprising. His threats didn't work obviously.
You become activist
Turkey should reduce its citizenship and passport program cost back to 250k usd
Erdogan the BILLIONAIRE Dictator.. Its time for him to leave.
Long live ErdoΔan
We are observing the situation in a Peaceful Country. Now it is very important to save the Country from Imamoglu rebels terrorists Party.
ππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππππ
We the people of Bangladesh protested for more than 1 month in 2 different large demonstration in active curfew and over 1200 dead to overthrow our 15+ year of dictatorship so there are plenty of time left if they have the willpower
Lol where was all this noise for Romania lol
Long live Turkish democracy and Erdogan.. β€βπ
How come that European media never sees the millions happy with the man being jailed and only talk about 100 thousands that are un happy?
Hopefully the West will not leave Turkey as they left Iran ti fall under Islamist hands

DICDATOR erdo-gone!
Long Live to DEMOCRACY, SECULARISM, HUMANISM, YOUTH & FUTURE! IMAMOGLU ππ©·β€οΈπ§‘πππ©΅πππππ
Down with Erdogan
Monsieur Makron where is your resentment towards Erdogan? Are you ready to welcome hundreds of thousands of Turks fleeing their country because of the dictator? Because in the end that's what is going to happen. If Europe does not oppose
erdogan's tactics and does not support the struggling democracy in Turkey, a lot of Erdogan's adversaries will leave the country fearing for their lives. If Erdogan gets away with it this time, he will become omnipotent. He will leave none of his opponents standing. This is History dear European leaders. It's time for you to rise to the occasion by thinking and acting in solidarity. If there are no holes in your decisions and you leave aside your petty interests no Trump, no Putin and no Erdogan can waggle a finger at Europe. Unless you are willing to let Erdogans, Trumps and Putins act uncontrolably.
Lawfare at its Best the President learned it from Biden USA Appears that Many people want to be Heard Do you think ??
