The Supreme Election Board (YSK) has finalized the results of the runoff presidential polls in which President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan came out to be victorious once again by securing 52.18 percent of the votes.

Erdoğan will take oath on June 3 to start his new five-year term as the 13th president.

NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg on Thursday said he would visit Ankara "in the near future" to push Sweden's membership bid, after the re-election of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.

"I'm confident of course that Sweden will be a member, and then we're working for that to happen as early as possible," Stoltenberg said at a meeting of NATO foreign ministers in Oslo.

Türkiye with its 85 million people will march towards bigger goals in its second century, President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has said, stressing the outcomes of the May 14 and May 28 polls have shown the Turkish people's commitment to implementing the Century of Türkiye Vision.

Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, the leader of the Republican People's Party (CHP) who has lost the presidential race in the May 28 polls, will hold meetings with his senior aides and party officials to assess the election results and set a road map for the coming period.

Turkey's President Erdogan officially won re-election this past Sunday. Expert Alan Makovsky joins Thanos Davelis to explore what we should now expect from a newly emboldened Erdogan on both the foreign and domestic front, from Turkey's relationship with the West and the US to his tightening grip on Turkish society.

Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan is viewed as almost certain to include former economy chief Mehmet Simsek in his new cabinet either as finance minister or as a vice president responsible for the economy, four senior officials said.

Now is the time for NATO members to finalize Sweden's accession to the alliance, said US Secretary of State Antony Blinken during a visit to Sweden and other Scandinavian countries yesterday, quoted by Reuters.

In a speech he gave following his victory in the historic May 28 election, President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has pledged that a system that aims at lowering costs in the agriculture sector, increasing growers' income and boosting consumers' access to agricultural produce will be created.

The Turkish runoff elections and the expected, yet not triumphant, win of Recep Tayyip Erdogan frame the state's future for the next several decades, bypassing the normative re-elected president's five-year electoral term.

Turkey's sovereign bond prices rose more than two cents on the dollar on Tuesday as markets waited for President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the winner of Sunday's presidential election runoff, to decide on a cabinet to run economic policy.
