. The Turkish electorate voted against Erdogan because they don't want to live in a Saddam like Hitler State.
The Turkish electorate voted against Erdogan because they don't want to give mandate to the same party again and again, as this would be against the interests of democracy......the AKP has been majority power since 2002. The Turkish electorate voted against Erdogan because they don't want to live in an Islamist state, like Iran or Taliban Afghanistan slowly gradually CREEPING in that direction, which goes against the fundamental values of what Ataturk stood for. The Deonme propaganda directed by London...where suddenly bearded HERO Ottoman kings shout Allah Akbar and attack the infidels......or in the case of Deonme Erdogan, fellow Muslims.
The Turkish electorate voted against Erdogan because they don't want to Kill, murder, rape, like cannibals eat the liver of victims.....destroy fellow Muslim neighbors for a secret plan of Israel. The Turkish people are peace loving people.
The AKP should disintegrate and disappear as a party.....Inshaallah!
Deonme Erdogan should move to Israel, along with ALL the other Deonme in Turkey. _____________________________________________________
Erdoğan concedes no party has mandate after shock Turkish vote
.
Longtime ruler calls for stability as country enters uncertain period
of coalition government after governing AKP suffers huge losses
The Guardian of London.
President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan of Turkey
has said the country is entering an uncertain period of coalition
government after his 13-year-old reign of solid majorities for the
Justice and Development party (AKP) was ended by a stunning voter
backlash against his increasingly authoritarian rule.
“Our nation’s opinion is above everything else,” Erdoğan said in his
first public reaction to the parliamentary elections on Sunday that
represented a watershed by shaving nearly 10 points from the governing
party and putting a liberal pro-Kurdish party in parliament in Ankara
for the first time. . Erdoğan’s conciliatory tone contrasted sharply with the highly polarising language he used during the campaign. . He said no party had won a mandate to govern alone and urged all
political parties to work towards preserving an environment of
confidence and stability in the country. . Coalition talks will dominate the coming weeks in Turkey after voters
snubbed the president’s plans to change the constitution and extend his
grip on power, delivering the biggest blow to the AKP since it swept to
power in 2002. . The election result wrecked Erdoğan’s ambition of rewriting the
constitution to establish himself as an all-powerful executive
president, while the country’s large Kurdish minority has been granted
its biggest voice ever in national politics.
“I believe the results, which do not give the opportunity to any
party to form a single-party government, will be assessed healthily and
realistically by every party.”
The election breakthrough for the leftist HDP, a new party largely
representing the Kurds but also encompassing liberals nationally, was
greeted with wild celebrations in the Kurdish-majority city of
Diyarbakir in south-eastern Turkey. Cars paraded through the city with
drivers honking and people hanging out from windows making ‘V’ signs as
occasional gunshots were fired into the air.
.
The
results will give the Kurds – who, with 20% of Turkey’s population, are
the country’s biggest minority – true representation in parliament. The
HDP surpassed the steep 10% threshold for entering parliament to take
more than 12% of the vote and around 80 seats in the 550-strong chamber.
The party’s result also denied Erdoğan’s AKP its majority. . The 10% hurdle, dating from the military-authored constitution of
1980, had been intended in part to diminish Kurdish representation in
the parliament. . Sunday’s vote was the first time in four general elections to see a
fall in support for Erdoğan. . While the AKP comfortably managed to secure
the biggest portion of the vote, its 41% share of seats represents a
sharp drop from its performance the 2011 elections, when it won nearly
half the national vote. For the first time since 2002, the AKP will need
to form a coalition government or call new elections. . The government’s deputy prime minister, Numan Kurtulmus, told
reporters he was confident that his party would form a coalition with
one of the other three parties, calling the idea of a new election a
“distant possibility.” . It remains unclear, however, who will be a likely partner for the AKP
after the most likely candidate, the rightwing Nationalist Movement
party (MHP) ruled out the possibility of a coalition. . According to the state-run Anadolu agency, the party leader, Devlet
Bahceli, said the party was “ready to be a main opposition party”
against an AKP-led coalition or minority government during a speech from
party headquarters in Ankara early on Monday. . “Nobody has a right to drag Turkey into [AKP] minority and some
circles’ scenarios,” said Bahceli. “A snap election will happen whenever
it will happen.” He welcomed the election results, with his party
gaining 31 seats in parliament.
Selahattin Demirtas, co-chair of the leftist HDP, and surprise star
of this election, also dismissed any possibility of a coalition with the
AKP. . “We will not form a coalition with the AKP. We stand behind our
words. We will be in parliament as a strong opposition,” Demirtas said
in a press conference in Istanbul on Sunday night. He added that the
election results had clearly put an end to all plans of an executive
presidency. . “As of this moment, the debate on the presidency, the debate about
dictatorship, has come to an end in Turkey. Turkey has returned from the
edge of a cliff,” he said. . Pro-government newspapers on Monday morning were already calling for
early elections. “The ballot box revealed the ballot box”, read the
headline of the conservateive daily Yeni Safak. . Burhan Kuzu, the AK party deputy and head of the parliamentary
constitution commission, said snap elections were inevitable. “No
government will emerge from this scenario. Not even a coalition,” he
told BBC Türkçe. “Early elections look inevitable.” He added that the
election results reflected the weakness of the parliamentary system. . “The parliamentary system is a curse for the whole world. In Turkey
only majority governments ever worked, coalitions always destroyed it.”
He said that the only solution would be an executive presidency. . New elections could be called any time in the next 45 days. . Official results based on 99.9% of votes counted put the AKP in the
lead, followed by the Republican People’s party (CHP) on 25%, the MHP on
16.5% and the HDP in fourth place with 13%. Turnout was 86%. According
to official projections, the AKP will have 258 seats in the 550-seat
parliament, CHP 132, MHP 81 and HDP 79.
The AKP has dominated Turkish politics since it first came to power
in 2002, but has suffered from a dip in economic growth and controversy
over Erdoğan’s perceived authoritarian tendencies. . The results wreck Erdoğan’s dream of agreeing a new constitution to
switch Turkey from a parliamentary to a presidential system that he had
made a fundamental issue in the campaign. Such a change would have
required a two-thirds majority in the parliament. . Speaking from the balcony of AKP headquarters in Ankara – the
traditional venue for the party’s victory speeches – the prime minister
and party leader, Ahmet Davutoglu, sought to put a brave face on the
results. “The winner of the election is again the AKP, there’s no
doubt,” he said, pledging to ensure Turkey’s stability. But he added:
“Our people’s decision is final. It’s above everything and we will act
in line with it.” . But the atmosphere outside the AKP’s headquarters was muted. Several
hundred supporters chanted for Erdoğan, the party’s founder, but there
was little sign of the huge crowds that gathered after past election
victories. . Erdogan’s divide-and-rule strategy of rallying his
religious-conservative base has led to increasing polarisation in
Turkey, and in some cases to violence. Erdoğan had repeatedly lashed out
at the HDP and its charismatic leader Demirtaş before the elections. . The HDP ran on a platform defending the rights of ethnic minorities,
women, and lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people - forming an
electoral coalition between the Kurdish minority in Turkey’s south-east
and liberals in Istanbul and elsewhere. . “This result shows that this country has had enough. Enough of
Erdoğan and his anger,” said Seyran Demir, a 48-year-old who was among
the thousands who gathered in the streets around the HDP’s provincial
headquarters in Diyarbakir. “I am so full of joy that I can’t speak
properly.” . “It is a carnival night,” said 48-year-old Huseyin Durmaz, a Kurd. “We no longer trust the AKP,” he said. . Another record was set by the number of women MPs set to take a seat
in parliament after an unofficial tally estimated a total of 96 female
parliamentarians securing a place in the Turkish grand national assembly
– a record high and up from 79 in 2011.
