Turkish municipal elections: Erdogan instructs former minister to win back Istanbul. Murat Kurum, 48, served as Minister of Environment and Urban Planning between 2018 and June 2023. He is currently the ruling party's deputy for Istanbul province. Kurum doesn't come from the world of politics. Prior to his ministerial duties, he held senior positions for 13 years at TOKI, the social housing administration. The choice of such a profile is not insignificant for a megalopolis of 20 million inhabitants threatened by a devastating earthquake.
