A few days ago, in an election activity, Interior Minister and Justice and Development Party candidate for parliamentary elections, Suleiman Soylu, said that May 14, the date of the elections, is an attempt at a political coup from the West. The idea of foreign interference in the elections is popular due to the tension in Turkey's relations in recent years with a number of regional and international parties.

The role of foreign parties in the upcoming Turkish elections can be discussed on three levels: desire, seeking, and influence.
