The enduring reign of Turkey's President Erdogan.
TL;DR Summary
Despite facing economic downturns, corruption scandals, and a united opposition, Turkish President Erdogan remains the most popular leader in Turkey and is expected to win the presidential election runoff on May 28. Erdogan's incumbency advantages and ability to leverage populist and nationalist sentiment give him a significant edge over his opponent, Kemal Kilicdaroglu. A victory for Erdogan will likely lead to further consolidation of power, erosion of democracy, and a more unpredictable Turkey on the global stage.
