Turkey: Rising Prices, Hard Choices

Business Daily

Available for over a year

The Turkish lira slides on currency markets as the country prepares for a snap election - but are voters even thinking about the tough economic policies that may be needed? Ed Butler reports from Istanbul, where the mood is pensive, and businessmen fret over rising costs and the prospect of harder times once the government's pre-election spending splurge is over. But will President Erdogan win the day and extend his 16-year rule further? And whoever wins, will they do what's needed to stabilise the currency and rein in the country's ballooning debts?
