Despite its preoccupation with the ongoing intifada in the Palestinian territories, Hamas has dedicated a great deal of its time to follow up on the Turkish elections of Nov. 1, during which the Justice and Development Party (AKP) achieved a victory of 49.41%, allowing it to form a single-party government.
Hamas’ follow-up on the Turkish elections was reflected in its members’ discussions on Facebook and the Hamas-affiliated Palestine dialogue network, and focused on the impact of the elections on Turkey’s position in regard to the Palestinian cause.
