Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu
ANKARA (Daily Sabah)””In a nationally televised interview with state-run TRT 1 on Wednesday, Prime Minister Ahmet DavutoÄŸlu made clear that the AK Party will look to form a coalition first and foremost and then weigh the other options and stated that they were open to negotiations with the other parties.
The prime minister stated that the AK Party was the only party that received votes from every corner in Turkey and from every portion of society during the general elections held on Sunday. He made clear that calling immediately for an early election is disputing the nation’s choice and they will first rule out every option before this is considered.
“I will sincerely meet with every opposition party. We have no red lines. We always said a coalition is not the best option but if the people make such a choice, what falls on us is to do the best of it.”
