Turkish lira plunges as Erdoğan claims mandate to continue divisive rule

[BidenPresident]

The Turkish lira has hit a new low after the election win of the president, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, in a renewed sign of the economic troubles his country is expected to face in the third decade of his rule.

The lira fell against the dollar as Erdoğan pronounced victory. The next morning, investment bank Morgan Stanley predicted that the currency will drop further this year, reaching 26 or even 28 to the dollar more quickly than previously anticipated.

I did not think that there was any doubt about what the result would be, but I do note that Alexander Mercouris says that this looks like a fairly clean election to him.

Alexander Mercouris

Mercouris was a British lawyer, until he stole from his client, and faked letters from the government. He was disbarred, but not convicted, because the million pounds he stole never existed. He lied about even that.

Then he reinvented himself as a propagandist for Russia. That is who Hawkeye openly admits to going to for his news.
