The election is crucial for Turkey, as citizens will elect their president and members of parliament.

As election day approaches, political parties are making their final appeals to voters, urging them to turn out in large numbers and make their voices heard. With much at stake, the election is expected to be closely contested, and the results will have far-reaching implications for the country’s future.
As the world watches, Turkey is poised to make a significant decision that will shape its political landscape for years to come.
