  1. Look I don’t know how the Turkish people feel about this but from the outside, this looks very authoritarian.

  2. Well fuck.

    Court also sentenced him to political ban. Probably he won’t be able to be candidate for elections

  3. They are just shooting themselves in the foot, it will just make already popular Imamoglu even more popular, Erdogan should have taken lesson from his past, where he has received a similar punishment back in 2001 which made him super popular and enabled him to win the elections in 2002.
