Turkish nationalists punish Tugrul Tyurkesh for working in government

Turkish Deputy Prime Minister Tugrul Tyurkesh was expelled from the nationalist National Movement Party today. As explained in the disciplinary committee of the MHP, such a decision was taken due to the fact that Tyurkesh agreed to be a part of the interim government of Turkey.

MHP reminded that the party refused to delegate its members to the interim Cabinet under the leadership of Ahmet Davutoglu. Thus, Tyurkesh went against the will of party, RIA Novosti writes.
