    Kıymetli kardeşim, Mısır halkının seçilmiş meşru temsilcisi Muhammed Mursi, hukuksuz ve anti-demokratik bir askeri darbe sonrasında yargılandığı mahkemede, milletinin onurunu savunurken şehit olarak Hakkın rahmetine kavuştu.…

    I met Morsi on the eve of the coup — & I were the last journalists to interview him. He was in denial about what was about to happen. We asked him if he trusted the army. He replied: "Gedan." (Very.) Three days later he was in jail.

    Cumhurbaşkanı Erdoğan: "Mursi kardeşimize, şehidimize Allah’tan rahmet diliyorum. Tüm O’nunla aynı yolu yürüyen kardeşlerimin başı sağolsun"

    "At 2 a.m., the (Belgian) embassy called the Chinese police to the embassy facilities in order to remove the family." And below what happened afterwards. Terrible, heartbreaking story.

    My personal verdict: As almost all things that are *this* anticipated, it fell short of expectations and lacked in substance perhaps until the last hour or so. Don't think it'll sway any voters any way. But at least we had a debate after 17 years. Turkey should do more of it.

    OK, if we're ever doing this again (we absolutely must), the moderator should not come anywhere near it.

    Now the moderator is fishing for compliments - asking both candidates if he's done well or not. For the love of God, what is he doing?

    As the debate nears to an end, with a 3-minute final statement given to both Yildirim and Imamoglu, it's all giggles and smiles now between the two candidates.

    CHP did indeed take the scholarships provided by municipalities to the Constitutional Court and it was promptly banned by the court. Source: Myself. Was a newly enrolled university student back then and it was banned while I was waiting to hear about my application ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Yıldırım's ideas include free access to museums and other public facilities. He says he cannot offer scholarships because councils were banned from doing so, accusing the CHP of seeking the court action that led to that…

    Imamoglu says his side is the one that can make pledges but not Yildirim's as AK Party ranks have been in power for the past 25 years in Istanbul. "AKP itself has been in power 17 years, and in Istanbul for 15 years." Yildirim interjects and that he's also a candidate.

    Now onto the women empowerment: Yildirim says they will build daycare facilities. Says Imamoglu pledged 11 daycares in Beylikduzu (where he served 5 years) but only built one. Yildirim adds "The point is not to make pledges, but make pledges that you can fulfill."

    Highlight of Imamoglu's statement on Syrian refugees: Denounces the discriminatory policies against Syrian refugees, by municipalities controlled by his party too and says he's against such moves. Recently some local admins banned Syrians from beaches

    Imamoglu says the refugee situation has been mismanaged but also Turkey was left on its own. Reminds a speech he gave in Paris years ago, told intl community that they left Turkey alone and that it'd bring issues they'd regret.
