Ambitious Turkey (2013) - FAQ
Frequently asked questions about this film.
What is Ambitious Turkey about?
Ambitious Turkey is a news segment. In Istanbul, the symbolic Taksim Square undergoes significant transformation under Prime Minister Reep T. Eran's specifications. A mosque and shopping mall are set to rise, complicating the square's role in political demonstrations. This change reflects a broader shift in Turkey, where Eran, who has been in power for a decade, prepares to meet President Barack Obama at the White House. One of Eran's ambitious projects includes constructing one of the world's largest airports, with a €22 billion tender awarded to liac holding, aiming to accommodate up to 150 million passengers annually. Amidst these developments, Turkey's politics face challenges, including ongoing talks with Kurdish militants of the PKK regarding their withdrawal from Turkey, a process that has recently begun. This strategy could enhance Ankara's influence in the region, as Eran actively engages with Middle Eastern politics, supporting opposition forces in Syria and fostering ties with energy-rich Kurdish Northern Iraq.
