LOL. Turkish currency devalued and this made their nominal GDP lower. That is NOT shrinking economy! Their actual economy, in local purchasing power, expanded by over 4% or so. Please, don't talk about things you have no idea about. You are still an amateur so learn from the forum before quoting seniors.
LOL, its pretty funny that you think you know what you talk about while in reality you don't
GDP is not calculated on exchange rates you "expert", the fall in currency would actually do the opposite, because in theory it increases exports and overall attractiveness of the country for investments, and it also increases the production within the country, as imports become more expensive, there is an incentive for a rise in local production.
Turkish GDP has been decreasing because of decrease in tourism, which is one of the biggest industries in Turkey, fall of relations with Russia for the most part of this year.
Economic decrease in neighboring countries such as Azerbaijan, Georgia and others also led to smaller trade thus further economic downturn. Not to mention fall in investments from those countries as well.
Spin it the way you like but literally the entire region is in economic downturn.
even if you go to Turkish section, no one there would even tell you Turkish economy is growing at 4%
PPP is relative to internal part of the economy, such as living standards and etc. its not used by economists as overall figure for how well the economy is doing. Nominal GDP is used to determine how well the overall economy is doing by economists around the world.
