    Erdogan won, 51.35% and "No" on 48.65% shows that Turkey is not a new Putin´s Muscovy, its still a democratic country, my question whats new? what will be the next stop for AKP and Erdogan in Turkey ?

    This is funny Litwin, Turkey is a country where a lot of political opponents of Erdogan are in jails and you still think that this is a democratic country? Clearly, Erdogan moves away from EU: Turkey has less and less chances to join EU.
    Actually this thread duplicates the earlier ones: http://www.politicalforum.com/index...p-set-to-win-after-most-votes-counted.502349/

    Yeah, Erdogan just became an authoritarian and I also question the legitimacy of the actual vote count.

    still "sultan " got only 51.35%, meanwhile knan of muscovy got in many cases 120% , 82 % is an ordinary thing in Muscovite kleptocracy

    Voting at 51.35% for Erdogan does not make a country democratic. Important is the outcome of the referendum-which way the country moves forward. You are lying that Putin got 82% support on the president elections.

    You're so funny, unless you mean it's a democratic country American style where a junta is democracy at work, and majority rule is dictatorship. You realize Erdogan has just made himself a sultan? But then again you read the British Bullsh*tting Corp., so how would you know.
