Turkish nationalist candidate endorses Erdogan, posing threat to opposition.

Sinan Ogan, a Turkish nationalist candidate who won 5% of the vote in the first round of Turkey's presidential election, has announced his support for incumbent President Recep Tayyip Erdogan in the upcoming runoff on May 28. Ogan's endorsement is a blow to the opposition, led by Kemal Kilicdaroglu, who is running as a candidate for change, economic reform, protection of democratic values, and closer ties to the West. Erdogan finished solidly ahead with 49.5% of the vote, while Kilicdaroglu had 44.9%.
