Highlighting the significance of the upcoming period, Erdogan noted, 'The 31st of March is a turning point for Turkey. And at this juncture, the eyes of the entire Islamic world are on Turkey. What will happen in Turkey? Even though this is not a general election, the focus is on what result the AK Party will achieve in the local elections. Therefore, I believe that our cause, which has a very strong youth, will give the necessary response to those looking differently on the evening of March 31st, as if bursting the ballot boxes.'
With 22 days left to the elections, Erdogan reminded everyone to make the most of this time, ensuring that through collective effort from the main party, women's branches, and the youth, they will deliver the necessary response at the ballot box.

This election, with the authority given by the law, is my last, but the outcome will be a legacy passed on to the brothers who will follow me. Therefore, we need to prepare accordingly and take steps so that we can give the necessary response to those looking differently, which we aim to do on the night of March 31st. From April 1st, we will hopefully start a new era.'
Expressing his belief and trust in the youth, President Erdogan said, 'Let's initiate a change and transformation in places like Istanbul, Ankara, Izmir, because the eyes are on us.'
