the remarkable images that remain from the Turkish election night, the of a lone President. Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s stand on the terrace in the first floor of the AKP Headquarters in Ankara, where he holds after each election to his traditional “balcony speech”, usually surrounded by faithful followers. But this time you only saw a wife, Emine, in the black coat and white head scarf, Erdogan’s side. There were absent: the son-in-law Berat Albayrak, the son of Bilal, the daughters.
especially Albayrak, since July, the Finance Minister, with his crown Prince’s career in the ACP a little more friends. Usually, you will want to be conservative-Islamic party before the rise of Wagoner’s work at the base. Too inexperienced “to be arrogant”, and, such judgments can be heard on the 41-Year-old. The case is likely to let him Erdogan but now hardly: for next week Albayrak has announced a “comprehensive new package of reforms”. It should give to the weak Turkish economy is again gaining momentum. Most recently, Erdogan had denied that there was ever an economic crisis in Turkey, now is the time of Denial is apparently over. A “reform period” start, writes the government newspaper Yeni Safak.
The loss of the most important urban centers in the West and in the South of Turkey was for the ACP as a shock. Three hours, writes Hurriyet, Erdogan advised prior to his balcony speech in the closest circle about it, why the Opposition this time was so successful. Shortly thereafter, Erdogan looked back to the front: “From tomorrow we will start to find our mistakes”, it will also be in the party Changes, said the lonely man on the balcony.
In the Metropolitan area of Istanbul, approximately is 40 percent of the gross national product of Turkey. The city itself is also a profit-oriented big business, earned with vessels, buses, Parking, Restaurants, good. Four billion Euro is the annual budget of the city administration, calculated Milliyet. There’s quite a lot in the last 25 years for government-related construction companies, and to distribute a lot of Jobs there was also. “Nothing is likely Erdogan will have more hit than the loss of Istanbul,” commented the critical of the government web portal Al-Monitor.
On Tuesday, shortly before the expiry of the appeal period, the AKP in Istanbul, they had decided objections to Counts in all the 39 districts of Istanbul of appeal districts, since the vote difference is so scarce. Ekrem imamoğlu, the candidate of the United Opposition, according to official data, about 25’000 votes ahead of his competitors of the ACP, the Ex-Prime Minister Binali Y?ld?r?m.
“starts If it will take longer for the thing to stink
imamoğlu” has asked the members of his party, CHP, the ballot boxes will not leave out of sight, so that no manipulations are possible, no one should sleep””. The election authority will announce the final results probably only in for ten days, pending a major TV channel.

Thus, Turkey could also win back economic trust.
Not all of the Pro-government media, can quickly adapt to the new time. The website of the Sabah reported that 30 volunteers had been detained for “irregularities”. The newspaper had to delete the message: The office of the Istanbul Governor had denied. The news portal, Haber 7 wrote, politicians from the victorious CHP had attacked the police in an Istanbul district. Also wrong. The local Governor’s office denied.

The Pentagon said, but also, the dialogue with Turkey on this issue further.
Immediately prior to the election on Sunday, the Turkish foreign Minister Mevlüt Çavusoglu said that the Turkish shopping in Russia, nothing is going to change. In July, the first S should be delivered-400 to Turkey. Erdogan wants to on 8. April fly to Moscow. The Turkey’s restless weeks before. (Editorial Tamedia)
