Turkey crackdown on journalists and protesters

from dc · host Salai Dawtcemsang

After days of protests following the arrest of Istanbul Mayor Ekrem Imamoglu, Turkish authorities have arrested almost 1,900 people including protesters and journalists. Also on the programme, US President Donald Trump said he would target imported vehicles and vehicle parts with a 25% tax; and we talk to the Palestinian-American comedian Mo Amer on using humour to tell sometimes uncomfortable truths about the immigrant experience.(Photo: A person carries an image depicting Istanbul Mayor Ekrem Imamoglu as people flash mobile phone lights during a protest against the arrest of Imamoglu as part of a corruption investigation, in Istanbul, Turkey, March 25, 2025.
