Türkiye political decision: Disgrace and satisfaction in the Istanbul downpour

Recep Tayyip Erdoğan will be Turkey's despotic president for an additional five years. This triggers happiness and trouble in the partitioned country.

For a really long time the sprinkle has been tumbling from the dim sky onto the cobblestones of Istanbul. On this noteworthy day, when without precedent for Turkish history a run-off political decision must be held between two official up-and-comers, Taksim Square is still nearly abandoned at 6 p.m., an hour after the surveys shut.

The weather conditions is just a single justification for this. The adherents of Kemal Kilicdarogluit appears, had surrendered all trust even before the principal extrapolations of the outcomes.

Travelers can sporadically be heard snickering when they are deceived by frozen yogurt sellers. Just the huge number of vigorously outfitted cops gives a thought that more will occur here in a couple of hours.

celebration and disgrace

At the point when it turns out to be clear around 7:00 p.m. that Recep Tayyip Erdogan will most likely win the political race and remain president for an additional five years, the primary thing to make it uproarious is the taxicabs. With the windows open and the cases wrenched up as far as possible, a yellow procession cruises all over the square. The AKP's political race song of devotion looms over the downtown area.

"I'm embarrassed about my nation today," says Ozan. In the same way as other youthful grown-ups in the capital, the 22-year-old financial matters understudy casted a ballot two times for Kilicdaroglu. Like most resistance allies, he was as yet sure of triumph fourteen days prior. The way that Erdogan was at that point ahead at that point "was a shock to me," he says. "Be that as it may, nothing else was not out of the ordinary today."

Youthful need to leave the country

Ozan gets heartbroken a few times during the discussion. "The hole among rich and unfortunate will just get greater in the following five years. We have such countless issues, the economy is on the base. It's not ideal to live here any longer. Also, I have no clue about how that will at any point change under this President."

In the beyond about fourteen days, he has frequently addressed loved ones about what he would do if Erdoğan somehow happened to win. "It's difficult for me to say, I've never thought like that," he expresses, investigating at the cheering cab drivers. "I love my nation, yet today I settled on the choice that I will travel to another country." There are numerous around him who think like that.

It is gradually turning out to be clear: the wish of some and the apprehension about others will become reality, Erdoğan will win. Regardless of the downpour, an ever increasing number of individuals are gathering before the huge Taksim Mosque on the opposite side of the square. They serenade the complete names of the old and new presidents. Turkish public banners should be visible as well as banners of the AKP or blue materials on which the essence of Erdogan should be visible.

All ages are addressed in the group: from young fellows lighting flares to an innocuous elderly person waving the banner of Azerbaijan. Indeed, even little kids dance joyfully among their family members. Right now, be that as it may, they are hesitant to converse with writers. "I don't actually feel comfortable around here, I wasn't even permitted to cast a ballot, so I can't express anything about the outcome," says Serkan, who really lives in Vienna and is an Austrian resident.

His companion, who is remaining close to him, wears the Turkey banner around his neck and continues to welcome different revelers with hand signals. At the point when gotten some information about it, he says: "These are only our hand signals. I'm only here to party."
