Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has claimed to have won re-election, holding a roughly 5-percent lead over his presidential run-off opponent Kemal Kilicdaroglu on Sunday, according to reports from Turkish news agencies. The country’s electoral commission has not announced a victor yet, though Turkish public broadcaster TRT has called the election for Erdogan.
The win would extend Erdogan’s 20-year tenure as Turkey’s leader by an additional five. He previously served as the country’s prime minister before that position was abolished, and he has been the country’s president since 2014.
