If TRT (Turkish government owned news network) is concerned about freedom, why not interview those ex-Muslims living in Muslim countries ability to renounce Islam? or even openly question and critize Islam?. Or is it against the government Islamic narrative?

Those ex-muslims were not true practitioners of Islam. Even you are not on your religion . We invite you to learn Quran and know about Islam than talk about it . This would be the most ideal way.
