Turkey’s economic crisis has taken a toll on retirees, as rising inflation and the cost of living have made it increasingly difficult for them to make ends meet. Despite recent pension increases, many retirees are struggling to cope with the skyrocketing prices of necessities. This economic hardship has also had political implications, as the financial struggles of retirees have become a key issue in local elections. The government’s attempts to address the economic crisis and provide relief for retirees have been met with mixed reactions, with some questioning the effectiveness of the measures taken. As Turkey grapples with its economic challenges, the impact on retirees and their participation in local elections remains a pressing concern.
