look who is talking
. as defined with in constitution Turkish army task with protecting democracy/republicanism and secularism of the Turkish state which had only 2 military coup in her history . 1960 were the government of the time was sizing unlawful power and was cracking down on civilian protest just right before the election they were about to lose. army took over only
for 1 year and invite all the law professor to reform the constitution to limit the power of the government and empower the parliament . the new law put into
referendum (the right you never had in your country ) and after it
passed into law army step down voluntarily
the second coup was the coup in 80s which end political unrest between left and the right as well as prevented an invasion from Syria ( kenan evren's first order after the coup was to turkish armed forces to
prepare for defensive war with Syria ) which btw the military's rule lasted again only for
1 year and army step down
voluntarily when threat averted
so in the
last 100 years Turkish republic
had 98 years of democracy with
116 political parties in total . army take control for 2 years (which btw one was for protecting freedom of people and other one was because of state of emergency ) so where is the dictatorships you are taking about ?? the authoritarianism started slowly when islamist took over 2002 and accelerated in the year 2013 after gazi park .even before gazi park protest turkey was among the freest democracies
ofc i don't expect folks who never had democracy in their homeland understand this , such people who never had the right to choose, will think every Muslim majority country is like their home country a
dictatorships
