'No other leaders': In Gaziantep, the earthquake does little to shake faith in Erdogan • FRANCE 24

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has been criticised for his response to the tragedy, but as the country heads to the polls on May 14, has the earthquake affected his popularity in a city that has typically been a bastion of support?
