| [Al Ahram] Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan said in an interview with Rooters that he can and will return to the ruling AK Party once the High Electoral Board (YSK) announces official results of a referendum that will give him sweeping powers. Erdogan told Rooters that a party congress would decide whether he would resume leadership of the party, adding that the timing of the congress would be decided by party officials. He said early elections following a narrow victory in last Sunday's referendum were not on ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire.... 's agenda and added that neither the country's constitutional court nor the European Court of Human Rights had the authority to review the outcome of the vote. Erdogan also said that he had not discussed a potential cabinet reshuffle with Prime Minister Binali Yildirim. He said developments showed Foreign Direct Investments (FDI) would surpass $22.5 billion, which Turkey had seen during his time as prime minister, in 2017. |
