Babacan: The discovery of more than 7 thousand fake accounts on Twitter supporting Erdogan is not appropriate for Turkey's standing

Ankara-Sana

Ali Babacan, head of the Turkish Democracy and Progress Party "Diva", confirmed that the discovery of more than 7,000 fake accounts on Twitter to support Recep Tayyip Erdogan's regime is not appropriate for Turkey's standing.

The Turkish newspaper Zaman quoted Babacan, who defected from the ruling Justice and Development Party nearly a year ago and joined the ranks of the opposition after the founding of his new party, as saying in a tweet on Twitter, "It is not appropriate for Turkey to be managed through electronic flies", in response to those fake accounts.

On Friday, Twitter closed thousands of fake accounts in Turkey created as part of a coordinated campaign to support the President of the Turkish system Recep Tayyip Erdogan and the ruling Justice and Development Party and target his opponents, noting that the owners of those accounts are providing strong support to Erdogan and publishing political statements in favor of the Justice and Development Party.

And opinion polls conducted by several centers in Turkey recently showed the decline in the popularity of Erdogan and his party because of his failed internal and external policies, especially the way he dealt with the spread of the Corona virus, which led to the overall economic recession in the country.
