Striking Reuters comments on Erdogan’s statements “but assembly, but this, but this”

A few days before the elections, the British news agency Reuters focused on the words of Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, who attended the live broadcast last night.

In the story headlined “The parties hardened their movements for the second round in the speech of ‘terror’, which is the most effective propaganda of the elections,” the story said, “Although the AKP, which has been in power for more than 20-year-old in Turkey, lost voter support by 7 points compared to previous elections, Tayyip Erdoğan as presidential candidate” While “terror” speeches, which the opposition associated with the PKK, were effective in gaining After the first round, the opposition rolled up its sleeves with counter-rhetoric for the second round.

“HE GAVE A NEW MOVE TO THE OPPOSITION”

In the news, “Erdogan used the phrase ‘but montage, but this, but this’ about this video while accusing Nation Alliance candidate Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu in a live broadcast he attended last night, which gave him a new move to the opposition side. After soft and peaceful rhetoric in the first round, Nation Alliance presidential candidate Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu is preparing for the second round by reinforcing his nationalist rhetoric. Kılıçdaroğlu entered the process of reversing the relationship between the PKK and the HDP and the Nation Alliance, which Erdoğan used during his election campaign.

In the live broadcast he attended on TRT last night, Erdogan said: “Kılıçdaroğlu’s association with terrorist organizations has now been made public, they have determined the roadmap with them, they even made videos.”

However, after this statement, Abdülkadir Selvi, one of the journalists who participated in the program, said: “You said twice in your speech, ‘They made a video with these.’ I didn’t fully understand, who recorded the video with what?” On the question, Erdogan said about the video, which Kılıçdaroğlu said was a montage: “Kılıçdaroğlu has video sessions with Kandil’s people. They published them. ‘Come on, come on, come on’ something like… Got it?, he said.

Immediately after this, Erdogan declared that the video was a montage and used the words: “This is how the people in Kandil, but this is the montage, but this, but this… They filmed the video, the PKK members supported them with the videos.”

While Erdogan’s statement began to be shared on social media, Kılıçdaroğlu wrote on his Twitter account: “I’m tired of being slandered, this never tires of slandering me. Show everyone who is clean and who is dirty, oh Lord. Amina!” he had reacted. “They will not be able to manipulate anyone in the second round. All the masks have fallen, everything is crystal clear,” said Kılıçdaroğlu, adding: “Young people will cut the accounts of Erdoğan, who He manipulates them with the false opposition. Now it’s clear who will close the gates of hell. The election started from scratch. Let’s go to the polls!” He used the phrase.

“ORGANIZED DISINFORMATION”

Emre Kızılkaya, chairman of the Turkish National Committee of the Vienna-based International Press Institute (IPI), also spoke to Reuters. “The main strategy adopted by the ruling party included associating the opposition with separatist terrorism, distracting attention from the ongoing economic crisis caused by political mismanagement, and appealing to nationalist sentiments,” Kızılkaya said.

Kızılkaya said: “Turkey was exposed to an unprecedented level of organized disinformation during the last election campaign…the government also played a key role in this disturbing event. Erdogan’s tactics to wear down the opposition through many channels prove it,” he said.
