Interesting life, on good-looking Turkish sources, accepted AGF. The hook is fine. I did some copy-editing, please check. I don't think we need the president's given names, actually also no link to president of Turkey. Please clarify why the name of the first of her "children" is spelled in different ways. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:00, 2 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
