World press on political crisis in Turkey (January 8, 2014)

Hürriyet Daily News published an article by Murat yetkin headlined "Graft probes triggered fight within Turkish government" and devoted to the ongoing political crisis in Turkey.

 

"One has to note that everything is happening within the AK Parti trenches so far. The dirty laundry in the house of AK Parti is spread out by those under the same roof already," the author writes after listing the latest developments.

"An initiative taken by the conservative journalist Fehmi Koru, who wanted to mediate a truce between Gülen and Erdoğan has apparently failed as Erdoğan disclosed and dismissed the hidden traffic in between."

"The opposition is enjoying the situation and hitting the government hard. CHP leader Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu warned Erdoğan yesterday and said that if he tried to cover the corruption allegations up he would certainly be put before the judges himself one day. The leader of the Nationalist Movement Party (MHP), Devlet Bahçeli was more strong in his language and said that PM was “losing his mental health” since he was trying to explain the graft probes with conspiracy theories," Yetkin writes.

"No one is in a position to guess what will happen tomorrow, including the players in the game," he concludes.
