It is difficult to determine the type of phone from this photo, which is of course a Nokia device, otherwise you wouldn't be reading this article here, but if I can see clearly, it is still the Nokia 6700 Classic device with which Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán chatted with Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan on Sunday for the result achieved in the first round of the held presidential election.

You may have read before that Viktor Orbán, the Prime Minister of Hungary, uses low-end classic Nokia phones, including the 6700 Classic device. It may be interesting to you that the Prime Minister does not use the latest Samsung S23 or the iPhone 13 in his daily work, but for a mini-mechanic, the most important safety factors are not the latest and most modern smartphones, whose daily use and thus the safety risk are extremely high.

The Nokia 6700 Classic can already be said to be an older phone, since the device was launched by Nokia in May 2009, so we can talk about a device that is currently 14 years old. But since the Prime Minister has been a fan of Nokia phones for a long time, he actually owns several Nokia phones. I consider it possible - I note from here in the "shadow" of my own computer that he also has a Nokia 8210 4G or Nokia 8110 4G phone. If I remember correctly, I mentioned earlier that this last device is a modern version of the 7110 series appearing in the movie Matrix and Keanu Reeves (NEO) used in the film. It would be interesting to see a Nokia 8110 4G phone on his desk and say - he is the new NEO.

But let's go back to the presidential election in Turkey and continue reading the article. Parliamentary and presidential elections were held in Turkey on Sunday, May 14. The two potential candidates are the incumbent Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, and his main challenger is Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu. During the Palamen elections, the AKP behind Erdoğan and its ally, the extreme right-wing nationalist MHP, are on one side, while the six-party opposition coalition started under the names of two parties: the CHP and the İYİ.

Current President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his main challenger, Kemal Kilicdaroglu, will make it to the second round of the Turkish presidential election, according to preliminary results. Aggregation by Anadolu news agency at midnight Central European time, it stood at 95 percent of the votes, and Erdogan had a narrow 5 percent advantage: he won 49.52 percent of the votes, while his main challenger, Kemal Kilicdaroglu, was on 44.76 percent.
