Former member of Turkey’s ruling political party, politician Feyzi Isbasaran has called on Erdogan to not kid himself and undergo normal treatment.

Isbasaran wrote on his Twitter blog that Erdogan is living inconveniently in an age of big opportunities for healthcare.

“Erdogan’s circle says look, he plays basketball or walks, but they are betraying him, his family and the people with that. It would be right for Erdogan to continue treatment and retire,” Erdogan’s former partisan wrote.
