ANKARA (Reuters) – Turkey’s opposition presidential candidate Kemal Kilicdaroglu said he will continue to lead his struggle, after early results showed him losing in what he said was “the most unfair election in years” against incumbent Tayyip Erdogan.
Speaking in Ankara, Kilicdaroglu, who got some 47.9% of votes in Sunday’s runoff election, said the results showed people’s will to change an authoritarian government. He is saddened by the “troubles” awaiting Turkey, he said.
