\"TURKEY-UNREST-POLITICS\"<\/a><\/h1>\n

Shortly before the elections in Turkey led by the death of a teenager the masses on the streets. Two people die, PM Erdogan relies on confrontation. He wants to present himself as a strong man among his followers.<\/h1>\n

There are scenes like last summer, again the violence escalates in Turkey. Young men go in Istanbul and elsewhere armed with sticks on demonstrators going on, shouting “Allahu Akbar” – “God is great”. Again, there are dead on the streets of the country.<\/p>\n

And there is a direct connection to the Gezi protests of 2013. At that time Berkin Elvan was hit by a tear gas projectile in the head. Now the 15-year-old died after nine months of coma. At the protests to his funeral, two more people died One of them was a policeman, the other a young demonstrator.<\/p>\n

Who are the abusive men who appeared repeatedly during the Gezi protests is unclear. “Either the violent Erdogan supporters who incited the AKP at the protesters, or are civilian police,” mused Yavuz, a kiosk operator in Istanbul. It is in any event amazing that they always unmolested disappear as soon as the police shows up.<\/p>\n

Yavuz and several of his friends were opposed to the men and tried to bring her to her senses . “The AKP is eventually no longer in power, but the people remain ,” Yavuz said. ” Cease to lash out at innocent people ! ” One of the gunmen shouted : “You want to overthrow our democratically elected Prime Minister Erdogan ! ” Yavuz yelled back : ” Erdogan should go to hell ! ”<\/p>\n

It’s all about power in the country . On 30 March are local elections in Turkey, of which a signal effect is expected : As Turkey holds it with Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his AKP ? Now he will do anything to distinguish itself as a strong pace for his constituents . But the protests even use him . He knows that his opponents he will not convince before the election anyway – now he liked for his followers the hardliners .<\/p>\n

The party is for almost twelve years in power , Erdogan Prime Minister for eleven years . Turkey has experienced an economic boom during this period , but Erdogan is acting more and more like a dictator . From Gezi protests he seemed surprised, he described the protesters at that time , among other things as “terrorists” and let the security forces act with hardness.<\/p>\n

Protests in Turkey:Tweet of former minister outraged many Turks<\/h2>\n

Since that time, persistent criticism cares not the government. A corruption scandal , the government since the 17th Shaken in December , call Erdogan and his followers a ” coup attempt ” . You suspect behind the G\u00fclen movement , a network of the preacher Fethullah Gulen , who lives in self-imposed exile in the United States and for months provides a power struggle with Erdogan. Last Erdogan expressed by a censorship of the Internet in Turkey.<\/p>\n

It looks as though the government deliberately provoked. In the case Berkin Elvan they made \u200b\u200bso many mistakes that it may be an oversight barely : you did not contact the boy’s family , only one day before the boy’s death , so when he was already dying, called President Abdullah G\u00fcl at Berkins family and expressed his regret. Investigations were not initiated , presents no culprits , the government never apologized for press coverage of the case was suppressed. Erdogan himself has never once commented on the case .<\/p>\n

The fact that the government is relying on confrontation , makes a statement of the former EU Minister Egemen Bagis significantly . He called the protesters on the day of Berkin Elvans funeral took to the streets , on Twitter ” necrophiliac people.” Under necrophilia refers to a sexual preference , which is directed to corpses. Literally wrote the ex-minister , they would ” give necrophiliac people (…) on March 30 the right answer ” to . He had to know what those words trigger a reaction.<\/p>\n

Protests In Turkey:Even the old man drives it on the streets<\/h3>\n

In fact, the indignation was great. An hour later, the tweet was deleted. Now Bagis wrote: “My Tweet was directed against the sick who are against the peace process and the peace provocateurs My Tweet distort some, will not succeed..”<\/p>\n

While still seems a majority behind Erdogan to stand, but more and more people doubt him. More often than last summer this time are a lot of older people on the street. “I am a mother of two adult sons,” says a woman in Taksim Square in Istanbul. “I was shaken by the death Berkin Elvan.” Otherwise, it was a “rather apolitical person” and did not participate also to Gezi.<\/p>\n

An elderly man next to her asks: “How far are Erdogan and his government still go now dares this ex-minister openly to insult us all Will they eventually turn their tanks against us?.?”<\/p>\nError, group does not exist! Check your syntax! (ID: 12)<\/span>\n
