Turkey's main opposition floats idea of 'rotating' premiership

None

Turkey's main secularist opposition suggested rotating the post of prime minister with a nationalist party on Friday, in an effort to win support for a coalition government excluding the ruling AK Party.

 

The AKP lost its parliamentary majority for the first time in a June 7 election, dealing a blow to President Tayyip Erdogan's ambitions of amassing greater power and leaving the party he founded in need of a junior coalition partner.
