A correspondent of Deutsche Welle was detained by the police in Ankara on charges of "insulting the president" and "insulting the nation"

The arrest of Alican Uludag has raised concerns about press freedom in Turkey, where the repression against journalists and critical voices has significantly increased. This action is part of a broader trend of intimidation and censorship targeting individuals who dare to challenge authorities or express differing opinions.

Uludag, a journalist known for his critical positions, thus joins an ever-growing list of journalists who have been persecuted in recent months. This situation raises questions about Turkey's commitments to freedom of expression and human rights.
