In #ReportersWithoutBorders' 2023 #PressFreedom Index, #Turkey is ranked 165th out of 180 nations for the environment facing #journalists. Among the reasons for the worsening conditions is a crackdown ahead of presidential elections in May, as President Recep Tayyip Erdogan faces his toughest re-election battle yet. Ozgur Ogret, a journalist and Turkey representative for the Committee to Protect Journalists, joined us on Perspective to tell us more about the situation.
