Protests After Turkiye Ousts Kurdish Mayor of Van | Vantage with Palki Sharma
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's party suffered a crushing defeat in Sunday's local elections. Instead of introspecting, Erdogan seems to be trying to overturn the results. The winner of the mayoral election in the southeastern city of Van was removed from office. He was re-instated, but the battle seems to be far from over. Erdogan's party says the Kurdish mayor has ties to the Kurdistan Workers' Party. The Kurdistan Workers' Party is a designated terror group. But this is not a new accusation. In 2019, Erdogan's party ousted at least 52 opposition mayors, claiming they had ties to banned outfits. Kurds in Turkey fear this could be a repeat of last time. But all the Turkish opposition parties seem to be coming together to oppose Erdogan's tactics.
