on this level when it comes to motivating people he's certainly seen as a man who can challenge mr adlon but nobody really things mr inject can get the necessary fifty percent of the vote in the first round of elections so the opposition's best hope is that misses out on will not get these fifty percent as well and therefore be forced into a runoff against a single opposition candidate but let's remember this election is again happening under a state of emergency which has all kinds of implications for candidates and campaigns rights groups criticize the media landscape here is overwhelmingly in support of the government in support of mr adlon so many people here fear that these elections are not going to be fair elections now you are standing in gezi park where five years ago today they will massive protests people have come out to demonstrate against a controversial development project planned for this popular park and the protests turned violent after a ride police car broke with protesters using tear gas and water cannon the government stuff response spot nationwide protests that peo

criticize the media landscape here is overwhelmingly in support of the government in support of mr adlon so many people here fear that these elections are not going to be fair elections now you are standing in gezi park where five years ago today there were massive protests people have come out to demonstrate against a controversial development project planned for this popular park and the protests turned violent after a ride police car with protesters using tear gas and water cannon the government stuff response spark nationwide protests that people wanted about what they saw as turkish president. lives to was. being their rights and press freedom you know five years later what remains of the angle to give a protest of two thousand and thirteen doesn't still resonate with the people there . oh yes people are talking about what's happened five years ago they shared their hopes and fears their emotions that made them actually become part of that dizzy movement as it's often referred to they showed videos their share they share photos but they do so most mostly privately or on social media
