concealed his intentions and presented himself as a muslim democrats. from today onwards. nothing will be the same in turkey. in 2001, he found a d, a k party. skewed cheese, one electoral success after the other, becoming prime minister in 2381 . so it reforms and endeavored to lead the country into european union membership. but to go, she ations have stalls i'm definitely in favor of partnership with turkey, but not e u membership and i was since turkey's application was turned down arrow one has maintained a conflicted relationship. with europe, he regularly threatens to allow syrian refugees to travel on to europe. if the refugees cannot move honorably on their own soil in their own countries, we must

o jointly bear the burden he has laid claim to part of the territory of neighboring greece and even threatened war hey, greece. take a look at our history. if you keep provoking us, there will be severe consequences since the war and you train air to one has strategize on turkey's nato membership and his clothes ties with pollutants to strengthen his position and play the peace maker. but as an alleged peace maker, erewhon did not hesitate to bomb northern syria and take action against the kurds, his arch enemies, to strengthen his voter base. the national stage one has been returning to his original principles of his loan and

. a few developers were arrested to appease the population's anger. but on a political level, no one has suffered any consequences. the reporting on corruption in turkey is a risky business, according to reporters without borders. turkey is one of the most repressive countries in world regarding the media. many journalists had been arrested virus tear clue news, tripage prisons, only 2. well, the investigative journalist spent 2 years of his life behind bars. this morning, he's preparing for his next trial. i know the attributes when the journalist like me, writes about corruption in the states. it's a non, there's a risk of being sued, interested on like, i've already been arrested twice, but it's just a longer. it means that your reputation is damaged and you'll be targeted by the

pro government press. you're just allow me brotherhoods, who are the criminal organizations supported by the president of the republic and jemma to take up life? so yes, being a journalist in turkey is dangerous because you don't like taking that tackle who is the best selling author? his books make the rulers very uncomfortable. subject to the book, this book is one of the best selling books in turkey fund supplements the 2nd volume of a series of books researching those in power, even in the past, the 1st volume at the spaces. so sold about 400000 copies was the 2nd volume were ordered over 200000 copies. and that is currently one of the best selling books. and also the book that attracts the most complainant scale to go a step behind it, then it should have it on his books. tackle lew denounces the infiltration of the state by islamic sect. he reports, however, one has enabled them to establish themselves at the heart of the system in strategic positions in the army and police

on the way to court the journal as describes an extremely corrupt system to us. many skyscrapers have been built still here. the ones rain, most of them buy companies close to the government, to this building bridges is another way for these companies to get rich to the companies that went a bit to build a bridge also very close to the government. the government also guarantees a minimum number of paid crossings. this means that the provided continues to make money from tolls off to completion the bridge. but it's not just drive it to pay. it's also the state which resides guarantee that the $770000000.00 euros per year alone for the most recent needs of the bridge sold, pennsylvania, which tear clue and other boot

journalists want to know what the state is getting and returned for the extortion, it's something they provide to the president's business friends in 2014, when some members of the government were under investigation for corruption recordings of compromising phone conversations attributed to everyone. and his son belong surfaced on the internet for the lives in the anti corruption investigation . right? right. she will be doing a health search and you understand a new listen. what are you? you've got in your house, get rid of it, goddess. and what do you mean? father? there is only cash in the safe. well, that's what i mean. the law allegedly called his father back a few hours later. so good evening. did you get rid of everything? so slow and not all of it? not yet, father. let me explain. there are still 30000000 euros. we can't hide the

right paula playing here with her son on a beach in the south of the country has had a bitter experience. i liked this country very much. it's natural beauty and climate. on the problem is some of the people who live around me. i don't have a problem with them, but they have one with me. huh. is an active list in the association of 80 as an in turkey. she's been threatened by the clergy because of her public statements and lives in constant fear of attack. i'm afraid for my own safety and for my son, i always keep an eye on him. even if i'm just sitting here and he's playing paula was forced to leave the capital, but she still hasn't given up her activism tonight,

she has an appointment in is near the 3rd largest city in the country. it's a late back coastal city on the gmc, it's also a strong hold of the come on list left in this suburbs, panama is looking for category a months cafe. he's a man who like her is being pressured by the clergy. while mr. co home on the welcome to use, we find him eventually she lives on that we're meeting and person efficient. so yes, we've never met her, but she's always, supposedly we've communicated a lot of the social media feels strange now because we're mine is not just a cafe owner. he's also a high school history teacher. he had the audacity to show his students cosmos, a documentary about the origin of the universe,

which the religious authorities did not like somebody else. and of course, people can be very religious, but they should also be able to think and reflect for themselves, easily developing and license at the same time. of course, but once you start asking questions, you quickly start doubting. assure much yes little by little you lose. you over the just certainties, become as nice as a little secure letter. after showing the film to his students, half a month got into trouble with the education authorities. they accuse me of showing a documentary about atheism in a country with 97 percent of the population is most of them. since i was sure i'd be fired. i have the cafe and cold cause, cause they mean the sooner they pulled most coffee causes. the vast majority of classroom and students support him. and this documentary presents backs are supported by the international scientific literature,

showing the feeling does not contradict religion. this is not propaganda because this we've owned a lot from him. recently, i think he's helped us to structure a thoughts better on the president era. one is pushing as long as ation harassing the press and putting political opponents under pressure. but he has less of a grip on the severe economic crisis affecting the country. he may have always had overwhelming majorities in rural areas, but now people can barely afford to eat, and he's losing popularity there. despite winning the latest election day on the black sea is where the president's family comes from. their last come on, girls use these in her family had been growing tea for generations harvesting the tea leaves with shares is exhausting work. according to official figures,

inflation is galloping at 64 percent. but independent economists say it's closer to 140 percent. this is making it difficult for your lease and her family to get by. yet to me, for some years now we have been earning much less. we don't make enough money anymore. and living costs have gone up so much, you know, the to my husband is retired, but he still has to work out senior though if he didn't work, we wouldn't make it. we have also the small plantation gen the general. we have is just $2.00 tons of tea per year lease. and then we have to pay for the fertilizer, the gasoline and the workers wages, india and there is nothing left. not a center here in the economic crisis is caused partly by air to one support economic policy decisions. check anchor is growing among the farmers and the working class.

did you expect any help from the state or you know what to the state? give us. we will keep working, keep growing our tea for visiting our crops and vegetables, such as a, a jazz or not. i still have hope. i almost really hope is a good thing. he's good for beauty. we're a strong country and a strong people here. if we manage to join forces and believe in ourselves together as a country, want to people, then we can move mountains, the motor sports scoring. we say there about never giving up sports flies every weekend
