Erdogan addresses in historic Istanbul rally

On the other side, he indicated that the best response to Western media targeting himself and Türkiye would be to see the huge crowds at Atatürk Airport. Erdoğan's words came after the London-based weekly, The Economist, drew the ire of the president’s supporters again with a cover calling for a victory for the opposition last week. The cover with the title “The Most Important Election of 2023” was adorned with tags “Save Democracy” and “Erdoğan Must Go.” Social media users were furious.
