"Turkish Diaspora Hopeful After Erdogan's Party Suffers Historic Defeat in Local Elections"

President Erdogan's conservative party suffered a historic defeat in Turkey's local elections, signaling hope for the Turkish diaspora. The opposition's victory has revived hopes for change, but many expats in Europe remain cautious about returning due to concerns about the country's challenging circumstances. While some see the election results as encouraging, they believe it will take time to address the impact of 22 years of conservative governance. Despite the glimmer of hope, challenges lie ahead, and some, like Turkish-Armenian journalist Hayko Bagdat, face significant obstacles to considering a return.
