Presidents of Turkey

In a bid to justify his support for a change to the political system in Turkey, President Recep Tayyip Erdo?an has suggested that the United Kingdom is run as a semi-presidential system in which the will of the Queen is dominant.

The presidential emblem at the entrance of the old Çankaya Palace in Ankara has been removed, as the transfer of all service units to the new presidential palace has now been completed.

Both President Recep Tayyip Erdo?an and the head of Turkey?s Constitutional Court have denied there is any tension between them, after joining a luncheon hosted by the former at the presidential palace in Ankara.

Political sustainability is not limited to holding a majority at parliament, former President Abdullah Gül has said, highlighting the importance of ?justice and politics in economic growth.?

Gül also indirectly stressed that if Turkey is considering a change in the political system, then parliament should be strengthened.

Now we know. President Recep Tayyip Erdo?an has a talent for finding someone to argue with under every condition.

Nothing stops him. He constantly wants to yell at someone; to teach someone a lesson.

President Recep Tayyip Erdo?an marks a first today in presiding over a cabinet meeting in line with earlier statements that he will not be a ?protocol president? ? even if it comes at the cost of weakening Prime Minister Ahmet Davuto?lu?s authority and influence in the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP).

President Recep Tayyip Erdo?an will mark a first today in presiding over a cabinet meeting in line with earlier statements that he will not be a ?protocol president? ? even if it comes at the cost of weakening Prime Minister Ahmet Davuto?lu?s authority and influence in the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP).

Turkish President Tayyip Erdo?an convenes the board of ministers in his new Presidential Palace today on Jan. 19 for the first time since he was elected to his new post after the Aug. 10, 2014, election.

I have been hearing two seemingly contradictory tales about Turkey?s transformation lately. One ends with the ruling Justice and Development Party?s (AKP) election victory in 2002, while the other begins with it. Both are wrong. Turkish history is one continuum, if you ask me. Without President Turgut Özal?s legacy pre-2002, we would not have had President Recep Tayyip Erdo?an post-2002.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdo?an has said he will soon rename his controversial new presidential palace, adopting the name of the complexes surrounding imperial mosques.
