In a televised interview, the President of Turkey strongly defended Turkey's relations with Russia while emphasizing the acceptance of the election results.

Afghan Voice Agency (AVA): Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, the president and candidate for the presidential election of Turkey, in a conversation with journalists and media people, said that the will of the people is above all else and he accepts whatever results come out of the ballot boxes.
 
In this conversation, which was broadcasted on Turkish Channel 14, in response to some saying that the Justice and Development Party will not accept the result if defeated, he said: "This is an ugly question; We have come to power through democracy, I will do what democracy requires, and whatever result comes out of the ballot box is legal."
 
Erdoğan added: "The will of the people is above all else. Our coalition has guaranteed democracy, but the opposition will invite their supporters to riot if they lose. The People's Republic Party will not stop spreading ugly rumors before and after the elections."
 
In another part of his speech, the President of Turkey mentioned the withdrawal of "Moharram Ince" from the competitions and the distribution of pictures of him on social networks, the images that accuse Moharram Ince of having an illicit relationship, Erdogan said that he had a conversation with Moharram Ince by phone and He has told him that the government is behind him.
 
Erdoğan added: "What happened to Muharram was the conspiracy of Fethullah Gülen, who is moving side by side with Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu." A decent person cannot tolerate these things. Mr. Kamal became the leader of the Republic of People's Party with a cassette tape, and now he eliminated one of his competitors, how can he do such things?" (referring to the sexual scandal of Deniz Baykal, the former head of the People's Republic Party in 2010, which caused him to resign from the party and was replaced by Kılıçdaroğlu).
 
In another part of his speech, Erdoğan addressed Kılıçdaroğlu's frank criticism of Russia and said to him: "You attacked Putin, but I am ashamed that I cannot accept such a thing, because Turkey has a warm relationship with Russia, which is less than Ankara's relationship. Not with America."
 
The president of Turkey also said that the volume of foreign trade of this country with Russia is more than the volume of trade with America.
 
Erdoğan added that Kılıçdaroğlu had repeatedly told Joe Biden before he became the US president that Erdoğan should be defeated.
 
He then addressed Kılıçdaroğlu: "But you are weak and pathetic. When Biden told me that, I didn't say anything to him. I know Biden before you and we have family visits with him.
 
Turkish presidential and parliamentary elections will be held tomorrow (Sunday). Voting outside Turkey also ended last Tuesday (May 9). The preliminary results are supposed to be announced late tomorrow evening and the final result on Monday.
