Erdogan has done so much good for the country. For the first time in decades the government is fully investing into the infrastructure of the country and local industry and business. A mandatory 30 % minimum wage increase was passed, and implemented to give all people a decent standard of living with the Turkish government providing 40% of this costs to small businesses, so they are not adversely affected.
Prior to Erdogan throughout the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s people had to que for basic necessities like petrol, gas and lightbulbs.
Doctors visits, blood tests and cancer checks are all free. Hospitals have been modernised, and new state of the art hospitals have been built, and people no longer have to wait eight or nine hours to be seen. Old and unstable apartment blocks have been knocked down and rebuilt by the government, according to earthquake proof standards.
He has paid off the entire IMF debt of Turkey in less than ten years, one of few countries to do so.
Muslims, who are the vast majority of the population with 98.5 % self identifying as Muslim, and especially Muslim women, now have the right to enter public buildings, to get an education, to hold any job and to be a doctor or nurse, to join the police and army and hold any position they choose, without having to remove their clothing first.
Previous to this under prior governments young Muslim women were even refused to take their exams, or be handed their results unless they undressed in public first.
When the attempted coup happened the people responded to Erdogans call
To take back their streets from the rouge army factions, and Turkey stood together against terrorism.
Erdogan has reinstated the Kurdish language in schools, with lessons for Kurdish children in Kurdish. The Kurdish language was banned in schools under the previous governments.
He has also made it very clear in his speeches and by his actions that the Kurdish people are Turkish citizens and they are the brothers of the Turks.
Erdogan has also had Jewish synagogues and Christian churches that were left to rot for decades under previous governments renovated.
On top of this Turkey is the only country in the world to open its doors to the persecuted, not only from Syria, but to the Turkmen people of what is now China and Russia who are being tortured and persecuted, he also opened schools and hospitals in African countries, worked for peace in Sudan and Somalia and Palestine.
Turkey has rebuilt schools, homes and hospitals in Gaza and the west bank, that were destroyed by the Israeli illegal occupation.
Turkey also sent ships to power an entire city in Indonesia, sent ships and went personally to pick up Burmese Rohinga people being who are being persecuted and are going through genocide in Burma.
Turkey is now the number two country in the world for humanitarian aid, and is a world leader in diplomacy.
This is why he was elected and he has held firm to his word and proven again and again that he is a first class leader.
He has also dealt properly with the traitorous factions who would like to turn Turkey into another syria.
He sent troops into Afrin. Where the French and USA have financially supported and trained the YPG/SDF/PKK who had commandeered Kurdish and Arab Syrians houses and land And built bunkers (funded by the French) stacked with arms to create terror inside the Turkish borders. Under operation olive branch Turkey took out ISIS held positions in Syria and Iraq in three months! Something that the US couldn’t (or didn’t want to) do in six years.
Kurdish citizens in Turkey and Syria have fully supported what Turkey has done to protect them from the oppression of the YPG and it’s sister groups, who had kidnapped their children and forced them to fight in Syria. Many Kurdish Syrian children are still missing.
He is holding all of this together despite the best efforts of those who want to bring Turkey back to its knees under the proxy control of the US And this is why he is the president of Turkey.
And all of this is the only reason why governments are financially punishing Turkey and making the lira weak because Turkey refuses to bow down to their demands and is actively standing up for the oppressed people around the world.
