Description
On top of the grief of losing their homes, livelihoods and relatives in the February 6 earthquake, many of the millions of Turks displaced by the disaster are concerned about their ability to vote in the country's upcoming general election. "We don't want to lose any rights" says Eymen Gassaloglu, a quake survivor from Antakya staying in Ankara, insisting that "most of us will return and vote". The May 14 ballot promises to be perilous for President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, a dominant leader forced into the unusual position of apologising for his government's response to Turkey's worst disaster of modern times.
