A well-known study and opinion polling center in Turkey found that about 75% of young people want to leave Turkey to find better living conditions abroad. Others say they do not want to stay in Turkey and want to get rid of it quickly. This percentage is pretty close to what was said a few days ago on the platforms of the groups that are against President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
The director of the Eurasia Center, Kemal Ozkiraz, said, “Three quarters of young people recently told our center that they want to live outside of Turkey to make their lives better.” The Eurasia Center does independent research on issues that affect Turkish society.
An honest head of the center told Al-Arabiya.net, “It is possible that this percentage has gone up now that there are several crises in the country, especially those that affect the youth group, isolating others from the rest of society.”
The party in power cannot stand up to them because the people have been hurt by their rule for decades.
According to Ozkiraz, “the current economic crisis is the main reason why Turkish youth want to leave the country.” He also said, “The unstable exchange rate of the lira makes them think about leaving the country, especially since their salaries no longer cover their living costs.”
The director of the study center says that the idea of immigration is a place where young people in Turkey want to go for another reason besides the money problems.
Özkiraz said that “the decline in civil liberties and democracy has also led to an increase in the number of people who want to leave Turkey.” He also said that Ankara will not deal with these issues because the government has not tried to solve the problems of young people or talked about them.
He went on to say, “The thought of immigration among Turkish youth is not just limited to working or unemployed people; it is also open to students. Think about it.”
He made it clear that “90% of the students also think about leaving Turkish land if they are dead and have the chance to do so.”
A Turkish rebel recently said that 45% of the young people he met wanted to leave the country. Erdogan’s Justice and Development Party, which is currently in power, is to blame for the harm the Turks have caused during their 20 years of rule.
As a deputy chairman of the national “good” party, also known as the “good” party, Sach Erdam called the desire of young people to leave Turkey a “big problem.” He also said that “the ruling party cannot face them” and that “the years of his reign brought misery to the people.”
In Turkey, the opposition parties frequently hold Erdogan’s party responsible for the majority of the nation’s issues, particularly the current economic crisis. The Turkish lira also loses value against other currencies from time to time because of this crisis.
The Republican People, which is the main opposition group, says that Berat Albayrak, who used to be the Finance Minister and is married to the Turkish President, mismanaged money and messed up financial plans. The party also wants him to explain what happened to $128 billion and says he wasted it on his job before he quit in early November.
