previous general elections in 2018 tried to prevent the newly established IYI Party from entering the polls. Still, the government’s attempt was blocked when ten deputies from the CHP switched to the IYI Party and formed a group in the Parliament. One of the judges who gave the verdict of the “Gezi Events” at the Istanbul Heavy Penal Court on April 25, 2022, is a parliamentary candidate from the AKP is the best indication that the days to come will be difficult in terms of democracy and law. This court tried Osman Kavala, who has been in detention for 4.5 years, according to Articles 309 and 328 of the Turkish Penal Code (www.bbc.com/turkce/haberler-Turkiye-544 68461). He was sentenced to aggravated life imprisonment for the case he was acquitted of before, according to Article 309, and was exonerated under Article 328, for which he is still in detention (Gazette Duvar). These events are essential indicators that the upcoming elections will never be fair. Opposition parties are responsible for preserving and reconstructing democracy and the rule of law. However, despite the remarkable tolerance of the opposition parties CHP and IYI Party, there are different opinions from SP, DP, DEVA, and GP. Finally, after the tension between the DP and the GP about the presidential candidate, meaningless statements came that there is still no alliance in DEVA; instead, there is an exchange of information. The People's Democracy Party (HDP), the Workers' Party of Turkey (TIP), and the Communist Party of Turkey (TKP) formed the third coalition of socialists continue. The DEVA Party is also working on a new alliance for a fourth right-wing coalition, which is not overtly. The DEVA Party has hesitations about whether there is still an alliance. The weakest link in the chain seems to be Ali Babacan, the leader of DEVA. The eyes, hopes, and attention of the voters, who are crushed under the economic and social problems, are on the opposition parties, undertaking a difficult task until the 2023 elections. If these mistakes continue, it can be expected that the same thing that happened in Hungary and France will happen in Turkey in the 2023 elections. The 2023 elections seem to draw vital lessons for the history of world politics. R eferences R éférences R eferencias 1.
