Ekmen emphasized that in terms of civil society and politics relations, there is not a crisis but a state of absence said: “This point can be described not as a crisis, but as a state of absence. Almost all organizations are in a great withdrawal. That’s because of because of the fear created by the dominant ruling system.”

By saying: “It is also necessary to evaluate the situation of the civil society of the nationalist, conservative, religious neighborhood, just as evaluating the state institutions being equated and aligned with the power.”, Ekmen notes that there is a structure that is fully integrated into the political system.

Ekmen, who stated that the pandemic has clarified the situation of crisis in Turkey said: “Turkey is experiencing a crisis. This manifests itself from the inability to distribute masks and manage the vaccines during the pandemic as well as from education to economy and judiciary. Civil society is a part of this crisis as well. Therefore, I do not think that this situation will improve without a total change in the political power in Turkey and without the new understanding of the new political power making suggestions to relieve all those areas of crisis.”
