Turkey is preparing for a run-off in the presidential election between President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his opposition rival Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu. Erdogan looks better positioned to win a third term, says Huseyin Akkoyunlu.

Opposition leaders have not been able to create a new reality radically different from the one that prevailed before the May 14 elections, he says. Akkayunlu: K Kıl Darağlu may be the best for them to run the economy, but he is powerless in making political stability.
