And they still say "democracy" without shame?

Turkey's elections concern not only Turkey; many centers of the world will be affected by their results. It is therefore not unexpected that these centers are interested in Turkey's elections. In elections taking place in the USA, France, Germany or Britain, we too may have some wishes, and we too may want the parties friendlier, or less hostile, to Turkey to win. But this does not give us the right to intervene in that country's elections in a way that would spoil their fairness. Wherever in the world it may be, such situations are plainly considered "interference."

That the sphere of influence of Turkey's elections is so wide is, from whichever side you look, also a sign of Turkey's growing influence and power. Erdoğan's politics does not make happy those who have different expectations of Turkey, expectations that are in fact against Turkey; on the contrary, it disturbs them. They do not hide this at all. Turkey's fight against terrorism, for some reason, disturbs them, for example. Hundreds of thousands of people slaughtered in Syria, people in Yemen, Egypt, Somalia and many other countries being butchered to pieces as in a slaughterhouse, do not interest them at all. But when it comes to some practices carried out in Turkey while fighting terrorism, a tremendous human rights sensitivity swells up.

We had in fact seen foreign interference in Turkey's elections openly in previous elections as well. But this time it has stepped into the field recklessly like the 8th partner of the Nation Alliance, indeed like the real mastermind, the brain-trust partner of the alliance.

Before that, if you like, let us look at the partnership style of the alliance's 7th partner, the HDP. As a forbidden love, appearing to demand nothing, with a tear-jerking sacrifice, having devoted its existence to its forbidden love, this partner cannot refrain from making itself known. The party's real leaders, from Kandil, are calling all the HDP's elements to rush to the service of the Nation Alliance.

What kind of love is this? What kind of excitement? And do they not, every time they open their mouths, utter fancy phrases like "for a more democratic Türkiye"? Yet the democracy words that pour from their mouths evoke nothing but Yasin Börü, Aybüke the teacher, the ditches, and the primitive fascist practices staged under the name of self-rule.

They have a democracy worth the salary paid by the USA, which has loaded them with more than ten thousand truckloads of weapons in northern Syria.

If there is anyone who believes that those who have no existence other than being a tool of the USA could contribute even an atom to this country's democracy or to any good, the shame of that is enough for all of us.

In the thick of the election, the Nation Alliance can no longer hide this partner no matter what it does. All it can say, as if mocking people's intelligence, is "they are giving us unconditional support."

We understand, there is apparently an "unconditional support," but in return for what, or by whose compulsion, is this "unconditional support" given?

In fact, the answer to that is also provided by the headlines that appeared in some British and French media outlets just ten days before the election. First The Economist publishes an issue, in the air of election propaganda with no analytical value, with an election-poster cover. Shamelessly, speaking of "protecting democracy" for Türkiye and of the need for Erdoğan to go for that, it has put a banner encouraging people to vote. Not enough: it has pinned these messages on its social media interfaces as well.

Their eyes are so covered with hatred of Erdoğan that, for the departure of Erdoğan, whom they deem anti-democracy, they point to the democracy ballot box that was itself established under Erdoğan's administration. They make it so clear that they desire Erdoğan's departure not in order to gain democracy but, on the contrary, in order to "get rid of Türkiye's democracy," which always opens up for them the troubles they never want.

When we see that L'Express and Le Monde from the French media also came out with similar headlines, this slimy hypocrisy sticks out all the more, especially in these very days. Because, to say nothing of France's pitch-black record of massacres of people and democracy in all the African countries, in these very days there is a massacre of democracy taking place in Tunisia under France's own direction and provocation, and we hear not a single word from the French media about it. Is it because they do not care about Tunisia, which they regard as their own province?

In Tunisia, the elected President Kais Saied dissolved the elected parliament and, with a parliament set up in recent elections with a turnout not exceeding ten percent, practically established his own dictatorship, precisely with France's encouragement, advice and direction. He had Rached Ghannouchi, the 81-year-old last elected, one of the wise politicians of the Islamic world, arrested on flimsy pretexts. Likewise arresting the former ministers and leaders of the Ennahda movement, who have no act or tendency of violence whatsoever, he killed step by step the democracy that had begun to be established with the Arab Spring. We have not heard the slightest word about this either from France's government or from its democracy-loving press.

After each of the Arab democratic revolutions, they mercilessly began accusing of dictatorship the first elected democratic governments in the history of those countries, before they had even completed a year. As for the bloody coups carried out using those accusations as a pretext, they were blind and deaf. The fate of the thousands of people killed by those coups, the hundreds of thousands they threw into dungeons, did not awaken in them even a trace of democratic sensitivity.

Now we are expected to believe that they want very much, in the name of democracy in Türkiye, for our sake, to get rid of Erdoğan, are we?

We know very well the concept of "democracy" voiced in these publications. It has nothing to do with the democracy we know and of course badly need. This concept is used as a code name for imperialist interventions and occupations in the Islamic world.

It regards every kind of genuine democratic movement in the Islamic world as a threat to itself and tries to strangle it.

Getting rid of Erdoğan in fact means precisely getting rid of democracy in Türkiye. Because democracy in Türkiye also brings the people's will for independence and objection to the world's rulers' unjust partitions and policies, and this, from whichever side you look, disturbs them very much.

Shouldn't we now question what the table of six, which is shamefacedly bringing out its illegitimate seventh partner in Türkiye, has promised this partner and what business it is doing with them?

Is this not also interference in democracy and a coup attempt?
