Has Erdoğan Tightened His Grip on Power?
Pollsters did not predict the scale of the AKP’s victory in Turkey’s November parliamentary election. But was the contest’s real winner the country’s president?

A clear victory for Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s Justice and Development Party (AKP) in the November parliamentary election was not what the pollsters had predicted. In a climate of insecurity, have Turkish voters indirectly given more power to the president?
Speaking to Deutsche Welle’s Quadriga, Judy Dempsey was asked to comment on the outcome of the Turkish election and the future of the country. She was joined by Alan Posener, political author at Die Welt, and Dilek Kurban, research fellow at the Hertie School of Governance.
This broadcast was originally aired on Deutsche Welle’s Quadriga.
