Erdogan's election win raises hopes and uncertainties for Turkey's future.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has won another five-year term, raising concerns about the state of democracy in Turkey and the country's role in the world. Erdogan's campaign focused on threats to the country's stability, including the 2016 coup attempt and conflicts in Syria. He also promised to make Turkey a global military and industrial power. Erdogan has been accused of authoritarianism, stacking the judiciary, monopolizing the media, and jailing perceived opponents. Many women and LGBTQ activists worry their freedoms will further decline in the next five years. Erdogan has maintained close ties with Russia and refused to participate in Western sanctions, while also supplying weapons to Ukraine.
