The ruling AK Party, which Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan founded, in June suffered its
biggest election setback since coming to power in 2002, failing to win a
single-party majority for the first time, plunging Turkey into
uncertainty not seen since the fragile coalition governments of the
1990s.
The failure of Davutoglu's efforts to find a junior coalition partner led him to hand the mandate to form the next government back to Erdogan late on Tuesday Aug 18,2015
Presidential sources said Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan would consult with the speaker of parliament later on Wednesday on how to agree the next cabinet.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan could now give the mandate to the main opposition Republican People's Party (CHP), although he has appeared reluctant to do so, and the CHP would in any case be unlikely to be able to form a working coalition by an Aug. 23,2015 deadline
Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who won Turkey's first popular presidential election in August 2014 and has since stretched the powers of a largely ceremonial post to their limits, has said the system of power has changed in Turkey.
He has championed a full presidential system akin to the United States or France, a constitutional change that would be virtually impossible without a single-party AKP government, but has also insisted that even without that step, his election by the people has bestowed him with extra authority
