Kılıçdaroğlu’s promise to Turkish election voters: You can travel to Schengen countries without a visa

Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, the opposition candidate in Turkey’s presidential election, says that if he wins the vote on May 14, Turkish citizens will be able to travel to Schengen area countries without needing a visa.

This promise from the rival of Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, Turkey’s president, comes as voters must choose between extending Erdoğan’s rule or ending his two-decade presence in power.

Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu is the joint candidate of six opposition parties in Turkey competing against Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. He recently promised in a television interview to solve the visa issue for Turkish citizens. He emphasized that if he wins the election, Turkish citizens will be able to travel to Europe without needing a visa within three months.

Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu’s election campaign is focused on defending democracy, human rights, and the rule of law.
