Istanbul Airport's 4th Runway Opens Amidst Opposition Criticism
Istanbul Airport's fourth main runway was inaugurated, with President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan addressing the event. He criticized opposition parties for their past objections to the airport's construction, including claims about bird migration routes, landing difficulties due to wind, and the airport's suitability given its location on a former swamp. Erdoğan stated that these criticisms were unfounded and that the airport has since proven successful.3 sourcesSee all sources
