It is clear that the United States and the European Union are trying to take advantage of the latest situation in Turkey.

Axar.az reports the statement came from Sergey Markov, a Russian political scientist, and director of the Center for Political Studies, speaking to Sputnik about the fluctuations in the national currency in Turkey.

"We should expect them to come up with new initiatives that will worsen the political situation in the country," he said. Elections are still two years away. During this period, events may occur that will allow Erdogan to correct his position. However, the opponent's score is good now. Perhaps at the highest point ever seen. Undoubtedly, the opposition that can come to power today is on the side of the United States and the European Union. The West is trying to overthrow Erdogan because of its good relations with Russia.

Erdogan can only get real support from Moscow and Beijing. Turkey can become a member of the Eurasian Economic Union. This will greatly strengthen Russia and Turkey, "Markov said.
