Dr_Pangloss Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 HDP have condemned the coup, surprisingly. This may not succeed, especially given the sheer amount of people who have hit the streets in protest against it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HanoiVillan Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 The Guardian are quoting a guy who has been predicting this coup for months, saying he thinks it's an officer or colonel-level coup and that the army may well be split on this. If that's the case, it may well get ugly and ultimately fail. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is actually Turkish but has gone on a British package holiday A friend of mine is also on holiday with his two sons (at least I assume he is - I don't think he pulled out after the airport thing a couple of weeks ago).
