thank you for joining us. on is returning to office with sweeping new powers after an election victory that is calling a win for democracy is a cure enough votes in turkey's presidential poll to avoid a runoff against his main opposition rival this party to continue its struggle to model child reports from ankara. yet again ridge of tabor is rick torrijos this success however will taste a lot sweeter for the man who's now won more than ten successive national polls since his our party came to power in two thousand and two sunday's vote was a gamble by erdogan who hold for the early elections a time when turkey's currency was the weakest it's been in years but it seems to have paid off for the man whose name has now become almost synonymous with his country addressing his supporters described sunday as
10:02 am
a victory for all of turkey will so should be. the winners of this election are the eighty one million turkish citizens of this country each and every one is a winner in this election everybody exercised their rights by going to the ballot boxes and casting. votes and i want to thank everybody you are writing history going into the vote it seemed that's a galvanized opposition could prevent iran from winning in the first round forcing a runoff that could possibly pose a bigger threat to his quest to become the first president under the new constitution the main content democratic i'm in jail of the c.h.p. had tried to garner support from all sections of society he would the religious bases by thuppakki joining prayers in some cities and attempted to reach out to the right wing blocs by promising to expel millions of syrian refugees if elected but as large as injuries crowds were or those of erdogan in the end what mattered were the numbers of ballots cost in their favor turks were have a proud tradition of high voter turnout did not disappoint early indications were
10:03 am
that more than eighty six percent of them participated while our two ones our party were with the presidential victory there will be disappointment over their parliamentary performance with the a.k.p. losing the two thirds supermajority they once held only managing to secure a simple majority with the help of their nationalist m.h.d. allies the big winners in the parliamentary votes where the kurdish h.t.t.p. winning over fifty seats making just new legislative body more diverse than the previous one and it's that who it is i'm that many in turkey will hope can help bridge the political divide that continues to affect turkish society speaking to the nation i don't seem to understand those concerns. we're. no one should be discriminated against in this country because of their belief because of their gender or because of their origins we will not allow this. your
10:04 am
position will be disappointed that they were unable to at least force a second round of voting they will take heart however from their improved performance in the parliament and the fact that a relatively unknown person like i was able to secure thirty percent in such an important election with a big zero to not only hope for once again that new. house what additional sarky. by becoming the first ever became president he is now arguably possibly even. more than they might be with the come out of the club a little bit different because. recent history no one really. will be telling him her looks as if this whole deal with. the social problem is going on. until. as we heard sunday's vote in a powerful new executive presidency long sought birotteau on. plenty of checks and
10:05 am
balances he'll now be able to issue decrease but not on issues where there's already a law in place the president also has the authority to appoint and remove ministers and civil servants without parliament's approval and choose six members of the country's highest judicial system parliament selects seven he can declare a state of emergency for up to six months but the parliament can shorten or scrapped his decision and under the new constitution can run for another term which means he could rule for ten more years let's bring in our correspondent in istanbul sin and. so i don't beat all expectations to claim victory in the first round tell us about the reactions this morning. yes foley is inspired on the has an unexpected majority in the first round this was claimed as a reached victory by him and by his supporters and when you look at the newspapers especially the pro-government ones say dawn stormed victory and the front pages
10:06 am
coped with his picture also newspapers are saying that ads on reelected president of people's elian's wins the majority also many newspapers since they are in direct the controlled by the government they have spared their front pages poor president add on's victory but and the other thing in the newspapers is that the m.h.d. the nationalist party who was annoyed with the ruling party before the election they have an unexpected unexpected but votes as well so they will be a determining factor in the parliament this is also in the newspapers as an unexpected winner off the election on the other side as their field position newspaper has left the main opposition newspaper june who are the ads which had a lot of controversy with the governments in the last one and
10:07 am
a how feared they had the headline as the government is trapped by the wolves the nationalists are dubbed as wolves in turkey. a minor marginal opposition newspapers are saying that they will be standing against the one man rule and they will continue their struggle for no everett is streets are quiet people seem to have accepted the results of the election but the opposition is the sky saying the legitimacy of the election results as it happens every year in turkey thank you for that you know life forests in istanbul. not to al-jazeera has been a smith who has more reaction from the main opposition. there's frustration and disappointment here the republican people's party headquarters the t.h.b. they hope that their candidate more i mean jay would at least have forced a second round runoff vote to do that they needed to deprive stop present one
10:08 am
getting more than fifty percent plus warm vote it appears that one has done that in j. has not really got over about thirty percent of the vote so a lot of disappointment here the the opposition will say that they never started off this election with a level playing field much of the television news time was devoted to the act party and president and they got about sixty seven hours coverage last month compared to seven hours of coverage for example for the republican people's party those so they say they were facing an uphill battle all the way they might take some consolation from the suggestion that the out party has been to deprive its overall majority in parliament it will have to work with this far right m.h.d. party to help pass legislation through parliament and those in favor of the out party and also the kurdish h.e.p.a. is represented in parliament so that may may suggest that is
10:09 am
a very representative selection of turkish society in parliament but above all yes frustration and disappointment here the c.h.p. that we're not going to see a second round runoff here for the presidency of turkey. now we're talking a southern border u.s. backed forces controlling the syrian city of raka have declared a state of emergency and impose a three day care a few commanders say they have information that i saw fighters who infiltrated the city are planning a bombing campaign i saw was pushed out by the syrian democratic forces last october people in iraq i have been complaining about discrimination from the f.t. yes which is dominated by kurdish fighters elsewhere in syria at least six civilians have been killed in the southern provinces where the act. it's reporting dozens of air strikes and barrel bombs government forces are making advances in the rebel held territory bordering jordan helped by russian air support. us.
