Turkey elections: Erdogan and Kilicdaroglu offer stark choices for presidency

Turks are at a historic turning point – choosing between two front-runners for the presidency offering dramatically different paths for their country’s future.

After more than 20 years in power, Recep Tayyip Erdogan promises a strong, multilateral Turkey and the creation of six million jobs, and accuses the West of trying to bring him down.

His chief rival, Kemal Kilicdaroglu, backed by a broad opposition, wants to steer this Nato member state back towards a pro-Western, more democratic stance.
