Turkish presidential election 2023
Teemu Mattila Updated:
Turkey will hold both general and presidential elections in June 2023. The significance of these elections for Europe and the world is surprisingly high. Turkey's powerful President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and his party AKP (Justice and Development in English) will probably be able to keep their influence on both NATO enlargement and peacemaking in the Middle East, among other things.
At the moment, Turkey's presidential election odds are favourable to the sitting president.

Erdoğans last dance?
Turkey's ruling president, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, has been the president since 2014. Before that, he led his AKP (Justice and Development Party) party to general election victories in 2002, 2007, and 2011.
Turkey currently has a law allowing the president to serve a maximum of two consecutive five-year terms. Fortunately for Erdoğan, this law came into force after the 2018 elections, so even if he has served two presidential terms by the summer of 2023, he can still be re-elected. And as the odds show, his election victory looks quite likely.
