A standoff is engaged, Sunday, May 14 in Turkey, between the Erdogan camp and that of his opponent, Kemal Kiliçdaroglu. “A battle of figures, a war of press releases, according to the semi-official Anadolu agency”relates Agnès Vahramian, live from Istanbul (Türkiye). “On 60% of the ballots counted, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan would be in the lead. But these are provisional results, which come from eastern Turkey, rather favorable to the president”says the journalist.
