What Erdogan’s win means for Turkey and the world
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has won an election runoff to begin a third decade in power. Turkey’s long-serving leader won 52 percent of the vote, despite facing the biggest challenge to his rule. His rival, Kemal Kilicdaroglu, called the election unfair, without disputing the outcome. He’d promised to restore democratic norms if elected, and increasingly veered to an anti-migrant platform in the final days of campaigning.
