Turkish President Recep Erdogan resorted to Facetime to communicate during last night’s military coup. The president called a reporter through a mobile phone on a local Turkish television station as the coup took place. Speaking from an unknown location, he called on the Turkish people to take to the streets. He encouraged them to leave their homes and take to public squares and airports. He said the uprising attempt was being run by a minority within the armed forces and said it would be met with the ‘necessary response’. It is understood that Mr Erdogan fled the country in a private jet. The Turkish military has announced it has taken control and overthrown the government of Recep Erdogan as troops round up police and attack the capital Ankara.
Turkey's state-run news agency reported military helicopters have also attacked the headquarters of TURKSAT satellite station on the outskirts of Ankara and the Ankara Police headquarters. Dozens of tanks were seen moving toward a palace that is now used by the prime minister and deputy prime ministers. A civilian car tried to stop one of the tanks, but it rammed through the vehicle as those in the car escaped. The Istanbul based first army commander Umit Dundar claimed those involved in the coup 'represent a small group' claiming 'there is no cause for concern'. He told the Anadolu state-run news agency: 'We are working to solve the problem here. They represent a small group within the First Army Command. There is no cause for concern. We are taking the necessary precautions with (soldiers) who have not joined them and remain within the military chain of command.'
The military said they have taken control in order to protect human rights, however, prime minister Binali Yildirim said only a 'faction' was involved. Fast attack jets and helicopters were heard above Ankara and Istanbul after the military confirmed they had seized control of the country,. Istanbul's Bosphorus Bridge and Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge were both closed after the military deployed roadblocks.
President Erdogan is reported 'as safe'. A spokesman for the Turkish government claimed the coup has been unsuccessful and they are still in power. Erdogan used FaceTime to talk to a journalist on a privately run TV station to stress he was still in control of the country and warned of retaliation. He urged the Turkish population to take to the streets and protest against he coup. The military has imposed a curfew and has ordered people to remain indoors. Erdogan is reported to be in a 'safe location' but is believed to be in Marmaris, near the popular resort of Bodrum. He said the uprising attempt was being run by a minority within the armed forces and said it would be met with the ‘necessary response’.
There are conflicting reports that Erdogan may have fled the country on a private jet. On FaceTime, he said: 'I certainly believe that coup plotters will not succeed. I urge the Turkish people to convene at public squares and airports. I never believed in a power higher than the power of the people.' He said he was still president and commander in chief. He vowed the insurrectionists would pay a 'very heavy price'. Turkish Interior Minister Efkan Ala says very effective units from the chief of general staff's office, the Turkish armed forces and the police are responding to the attempted coup in the country. Ala says they are responding to 'gangs who have taken cover in certain locations'. He spoke by telephone to NTV television and also encouraged Turkish citizens to 'fearlessly go out and support our security forces'. He says: 'We think it would be right for them to go out to the airports, to the streets, especially to the main arteries. As long as they do that this gang's attempts... they will be defeated no matter what.' He added 'this is a gang that considers nothing sacred, not the people or the nation. They're taking certain actions.'
He founded the Justice and Development Party, known as the AKP in 2001 and led it through three general elections. He then stepped down as leader in 2003 when he was elected President. He comes from an Islamist political background and is described as a conservative democrat. He has proved to be a divisive character in Turkish society. Erdogan has become increasingly unpopular with more educated and modernised people but he has denied wanting to impose Islamic values in the country. He has said he is committed to secularism but supports people’s rights to express their religious beliefs openly. The party which he founded, AKP, suffered a dip in the polls last summer, but regained popularity again after Turkey’s worst suicide bombing in history last November. He remains well-liked among the more traditional Muslim community in Turkey, who supported his bids to criminalise adultery and introduce alcohol-free zones in the country although they ultimately failed. Mr Erdogan owes much of his political success to the stable economy over the last decade.
According to the military tonight's action will 'reinstall the constitutional order, democracy, human rights and freedoms, to ensure that the rule of law once again reigns in the country, for the law and order to be reinstated'. The military statement went on to say that 'all international agreements and commitments will remain. We pledge that good relations with all world countries will continue'.
According to the address read out of state TV: 'A curfew has been imposed until a second order.' The military signed the statement on behalf of the 'Council for Peace in the Homeland'. US Secretary of State John Kerry said he hoped the crisis in Turkey would soon be resolved while preserving peace, stability and a respect for 'continuity'. Turkey's top general has been taken hostage at the military headquarters in the capital Ankara after an attempt to bring down the government, the state-run Anadolu news agency reported. 'General Hulusi Akar has been taken hostage by a group in the military who attempted an uprising.' President Erdogan has vowed to retaliate against the military. He appeared on a private TV station on a mobile phone which was held up to the camera. He is currently in an undisclosed location. His officials claimed that Turkey’s democratically elected government and president remain in power. There are conflicting reports on whether Erdogan is still in the country. His prime minister has vowed to 'retaliate in kind'.
