The number of people who are satisfied with the path of that party, which is chaired by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, is very few," said the head of the opposition Turkish "Future" party, and former prime minister, Ahmet Davutoglu, in an interview with his television channel "Khalq TV".

The leader of the ruling party, Ahmet Davutoglu, stressed that "there will be nothing in Turkey called the Justice and Development Party in the future."

Ihsanoglu noted Erdogan's AK Party violations of democracy, adding, "Turkey has recently suffered from problems of freedoms and justice."

On the practices of the ruling party recently, he added, "The gangs have left prison and journalists stayed inside, and the poverty rate has increased."

Ihsanoglu described Erdogan's regime as authoritarian, adding: "I see that the bias of tyranny has managed to control people who were ordinary before, and there is no doubt that tyranny is a global disease, I do not think that this authoritarian structure that exists in Turkey will remain."

Davutoglu noted that "I did not feel more free like the day I decided to leave my post as prime minister," stressing that the ruling authority at the time wanted to make him a puppet at the time before his resignation.

"There is no longer any certainty in Turkey in my last meeting with Erdogan," he added, "people in the party council did not trust each other."

Davutoglu also criticized the economic situation in Turkey, explaining in this regard that "when I was prime minister, the inflation rate was only 7%, but now it has become a two-digit number."
