[20 Dec 2013] The Debate - Turkey-s Tug of War? - English
Turkey\\\'s Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan is tackling the biggest challenge of his rule from what he describes as a foreign-backed conspiracy to undermine him and create a \\\"state within a state\\\", in reference to a series of anti-corruption raids and the detention of senior businessmen close to Erdogan as well as sons of three cabinet ministers. What has led to Erdogan\\\'s declining popularity? Will he and his party be able to win back public support before the elections next year? In this debate, we\\\'ll discuss what has gone so wrong for Turkey under AK Party\\\'s rule, including his foreign policies mistakes, and whether what is happening to Erdogan is the result of an evil probe (or) foreign plot.
