It's an important election that could change more than just the head of state.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is hoping to extend his term after more than 20 years in power.
But recent opinion polls suggest he's not the outright favourite.
High inflation and a perceived slow response to devastating earthquakes have hit his popularity.
Some voters are turning to a new candidate.
So what does that mean for Turkish politics - and the economy?
Presenter: Imran Khan
Guests:
Onur Erim - President of Dragoman Strategies, a defence think tank and author of a book on Turkiye's election system
W Robert Pearson - Turkish foreign policy specialist and former U.S. ambassador in Ankara
Sinan Ulgen - Chairman of the Center for Economic and Foreign Policy Studies and a former Turkish diplomat
