Turkey Elections: ErdoÄŸan Blasts Oppositions, Says They Lack Vision

Turkey’s President Recep Tayyip ErdoÄŸan has hit out at opposition parties for lacking vision amid the anticipated coming elections.

“They worked hard to issue this joint policy text but I feel sorry for those who cling their hopes to these parties,” ErdoÄŸan said on Wednesday.

ErdoÄŸan also listed the accomplishments of his AK Party governments, from a new body of law clarifying the executive, legislative and judiciary organs’ responsibilities with a new administrative system (executive presidency), largely achieving goals they set to accomplish.

ErdoÄŸan said; “We achieved such a fast pace in development and democracy in this period, the opposition remained far behind.

“It is a success story to bring Türkiye to a level where it defies global crises, from a level where it was languishing in its own crises.”

On the opposition parties, he said; “They apparently did not rack their brains to create new projects and did not see what they have pledged were already done and we even did more. They have eyes but they don’t see.

“Türkiye does not deserve such an opposition. If this is their election program, I can’t imagine what this country will be turned into once they were required to assume responsibilities.”
