General elections are due in Turkey in June of next year. President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has started preparing for it. The president gave a speech in the capital Ankara on Friday. It is said that he has presented the vision of the next decade for Turkey. However, it is also being seen as his election manifesto. Indeed, Erdogan has promised a new constitution in the country, which guarantees the rights and freedoms of citizens.
President Erdogan said in his speech that the new constitution would strengthen "the rule of law, pluralism, and equality". However, these have all been seriously weakened under Erdogan's regime in recent years, according to rankings of international organizations.
Turkey at number 117 in the rule of law

Other reports claim dictatorships are on the rise in Turkey, while resources are being used to suppress the voices of critics.
At the same time, according to the World Economic Forum Global Gender Gap Report 2022, Turkey is ranked 124 out of 146 countries in terms of inequalities between men and women. One of the main reasons for this is that women's income is on average only 47 percent of men's income.
