Turkey’s Ex-Finance Chief Simsek Joins Erdogan on Campaign Trail


Turkey’s ex-finance czar Mehmet Simsek joined a campaign event with Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Wednesday, adding to speculation that he’ll be tapped to restore credibility among investors should the president win this week’s elections.  

The pair were spotted at a ceremony marking the opening of a religious facility in Simsek’s hometown of Batman in Turkey’s southeast. Erdogan held a rally in the province earlier on Wednesday.
