How long can a president serve in turkey?
Since the constitutional referendum in Turkey in 2017, the presidential term has been changed from seven to five years.

Why can the president only get elected twice?
The first president of the United States, George Washington, was voted to be president by every single citizen for both terms he served. After his two terms, he refused to serve a third term of presidency. The second president, John Adams, decided to follow in his footsteps and serve for only two terms, refusing the third. All presidents who came after either were not voted to go onto their second terms, or dropped out of the running when it came time to vote for the next president after they'd finished with their second term. It became an unspoken law to follow the example of our first president, and so today it is known that each president may only serve for the maximum of two terms.
Did any presidents serve three terms?
Yes, Franklin Roosevelt served three terms (a total of twelve years). as a result, the 22nd Amendment was made, which limits a president to a total of two terms and two years (he could only get those two years if he became vice president to another president who later died or resigned).

How long is the President's terms?
In the United States, the president's term of office is four years. For many years, presidents were expected to serve no more than two consecutive terms, but there was no law about it-- in fact, President Franklin D. Roosevelt was elected four times. But in 1951, the 22nd Amendment went into effect and now no president can serve more than two consecutive terms, or eight years.
How many terms does the 22nd amendment limit the president to?
10 years. A president can run 2 terms, each 4 years. That makes 8 years total. However if a Vice President has been in office for 2 years or less and the President dies/resigns then the VP can run again and if elected be in office for 8 years. 2 +8 = 10 years total.
Which U.S president served the most terms and how many did he serve?
Franklin Roosevelt was the only president to serve or run for more than 2 terms. He died before he completed his fourth term. George Washington probably could have served for as many terms as he wished, but he refused to serve a third term and that set a precedent which everybody honored until FDR broke it. Now there is a constitutional amendment that disallows a third term.
