Apparently, that building in the distance (to the right of the robot) is the Presidential Palace! I don't anything about Turkish politics, but maybe the Mayor and President are political enemies. Talk about a statement...

This guy needs to be in charge of the entire world, to be honest.

An impressive Zaku statue. Though they still have a long way to go before matching Japan's capacity of building giant robot statues.

Still, respect the robot.

It's super close, isn't it? 

 

Reminds me more of the Gouf than the Zaku, although it looks like some sort of combination of the two:

Yeah, the head in particular is not quite right, but it definitely seems inspired by early Zeon mobile suits.

Turkey needs some Kebab Statues instead! Something like this but with artificial Kebab:

Melih Gökçek, mayor of the city of Ankara in Turkey is being sued by taxpayers due to the large amounts of money spent on the robot statue. Gökçek responded to criticism and public backlash of the statue by stating 'Respect the robot.'

Nope and they plan on making it move.

OK didn't know that. I thought it was only put up as a temporary thing.

 

I wish Japan would make a real gundam and go to war with someone.

Erdoğan and Gökçek are both in the AKP, and Gökçek has consistently endorsed Erdoğan's presidential campaigns. A couple of weeks ago, there was a dust-up between Erdoğan and Vice Prime Minister Bülent Arınç (also AKP) in which Gökçek clearly took Erdoğan's side and appeared to be acting as a sort of attack dog for Erdoğan in the Turkish press.

If there's some sort of political rift there, and if Gökçek's robot is supposed to be tweaking Erdoğan's metaphorical nose, it'd be a surprise to me, at least.

Respect the Robot, indeed.

 

Also I have it on good authority that chicks dig giant robots.
