Turkey election: will earthquake effects plunge Erdogan? [ANALYSIS]

Two consecutive earthquakes of magnitude 7.7 and 7.6 degrees on the Richter scale, which occurred on February 6 in the Turkish state of Kahramanmaraş, were felt by 13 million people in 10 confederate provinces of the country. It is already known that this was the most powerful natural disaster in Turkey. Hundreds of aftershocks overturned buildings along the 250-mile-long strip in the south of the country, destroying thousands of structures and causing billions of dollars in damage. Losses for the economy there amount to more than $80 billion.
