Video Commentary: CHP’s stunning victory shakes up the politcal landcape. What to expect next?

Atilla YeşiladaPosted on

It took me a couple of days to get over the shock of CHP beating  AKP.  After 22 years of disappointments, I was afraid of being  stuck in Groundhog Day type of dream. It wasn’t.  Miracles do happen, and this one saved Turkish democracy from death–for the time being.

What will happen going forward in politics and economic policy?  My gut tells me I shall be dropping more videos on this subject in the coming weeks, because the scohk waves barely started, and are likely to spread from IYIP to Erdogan’s Palace.
