MOSCOW (Sputnik), Svetlana Alexandrova – Dhuicq said the coup could lead to restoration of "order" in Turkey and returning to Ataturk's political course in the country.
"During the last year, Erdogan has imprisoned few generals and that was a sign that he was destroying the Ataturk's heritage. If it is a coup and if the army is there to restore order, to bring back Ataturk's politics and to change Erdogan's policy that was built on the idea of rebirth of the Ottoman Empire linked with Islamism, it could be a good news for Turkey and the rest of the world," Nicolas Dhuicq said.
"The situation in Turkey is complex. We cannot be sure that these military guys will get support from the population. Nevertheless it is very difficult for Turkey tonight because the country is divided," Dhuicq told Sputnik.
