Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu officially returned the mandate
to form a government to President Tayyip Erdogan on Tuesday Aug 18,2015, the
presidency said in a statement, after failing to find a junior coalition
partner for his AK Party.
The move, widely expected after coalition talks between the AKP and the nationalist MHP broke down on Monday Aug 17,2015, could now lead Erdogan to give the mandate to parliament's second-largest party, the secular CHP, although it, too, is seen as being unable to form a government.
If no government is formed by Aug. 23,2015 Erdogan must dissolve Davutoglu's caretaker administration and call on an interim power-sharing government to lead Turkey to a new election in the autumn.
