Turkey’s Erdogan says upcoming local elections will be his last | DW News

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan says this month's local elections will be his last as President - suggesting that he will not stand for another term. His comments came during a visit by his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelenskyy. President Erdogan also said he was ready to host a peace summit between Ukraine and Russia and that Turkey would contribute to the reconstruction of Ukraine when the war ends. Recep Tayyip Erdogan has led Turkey for more than 20 years, winning more than a dozen elections since 2002. He won his current five-year term in hotly contested elections last May.
