Erdogan ohne Jugend

Eine gläubige Jugend wollte er heranziehen, die nach traditionellen Werten lebt, viele Kinder bekommt und viel islamischer lebt als ihre Eltern. Aus dem Projekt scheint nicht viel geworden zu sein und damit steht dann auch sein Erbe auf dem Spiel, denn wenn stimmt, , dürfte die Türkei in zehn Jahren sehr anders aussehen als heute und keine AKP mehr regieren. Übrigens ist dies ein Trend, der in der ganzen Region zu beobachten ist:

Recently governing AKP’s inability to reach the ‘Generation Z’ has been target of many polls and the outlook looks grim for the party that has ruled Turkey for almost two decades. MAK Polling most recently has revealed the findings of a poll that states only 25% support for AKP among the youth.

MAK Consultancy’s owner Mehmet Ali Kulat has participated in a live program where he announced that “Generation Z is a direct threat to the AKP. In the eastern and southeastern regions youth support HDP while in the Aegean and Thrace they opt for CHP.”

During Gökhan Özbek’s 23 Derece program, Kulat stated that in the polls especially in the last 4-5 years AKP has been having problems reaching the younger voters, “there are exceptions of course such as the heartland of Anatolia in the cities of Konya and Kayseri, but overall the youth opt for HDP and CHP at the moment.”

Kulat said “if there is an election in 2023 and the developments continue on this trend, Generation Z will pose a serious threat for AKP. Because there is a significant level of negativity on the outlook of AKP among this generation.”
