Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan won a decisive victory in an election that will give him five more years in office with sweeping new powers.
Here are some of the first reactions today from foreign governments: -
He hoped that bilateral relations "could further develop based on firm historical, cultural and religious bonds, good neighbourliness, mutual respect and common interests, and close, responsible cooperation between the two countries regarding the developments in the region and the World of Islam to prepare better groundwork for resolving issues and fostering peace and stability, as well as welfare for the peoples of the region."
Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Geng Shuang said Beijing congratulates Erdogan and "respects the choice made by the Turkish people."
"China is willing to work more with Turkey, to move forward our strategic cooperation, to serve the benefits of our two countries and two peoples."
Asked whether Turkey would become more democratic with Erdogan bolstering his powers Wallstrom said: "I unfortunately do not have any great hopes but we have to give them a chance."
Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic congratulated Erdogan, saying that Belgrade "will continue to be a reliable partner of Turkey and of its role as a leader ready to defend the values and principles in these more than difficult times."
