Enes Kanter is a Turkish professional basketball player who currently plays for the Portland Trail Blazers in the NBA. He has been an outspoken critic of the Turkish government and its president, Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Kanter's criticism of Erdogan stems from a variety of issues, including human rights abuses, political corruption, and suppression of free speech.
Erdogan, on the other hand, has been the President of Turkey since 2014. He was previously the Prime Minister of Turkey from 2003 to 2014. Erdogan's presidency has been marked by controversy, including the suppression of free speech and the media, the persecution of political opponents, and an increasingly authoritarian style of government. Erdogan has also been criticized for his government's handling of the Syrian civil war and conducting military operations in northern Syria.
Kanter has been a vocal opponent of Erdogan's government, and he has accused Erdogan of being a dictator and engaging in human rights abuses. Kanter has also taken action to back up his words, including publicly supporting the Hizmet movement (an Islamic movement that Erdogan has targeted), and criticizing Erdogan through social media and other platforms. In response, Erdogan has issued arrest warrants for Kanter, accusing him of terrorism and supporting the Gülen movement (an opposition group that Erdogan blames for the 2016 Turkish coup attempt). Kanter has been forced to avoid returning to Turkey since 2017 due to these accusations.
