Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has implied to expel US Ambassador to Ankara for his alleged remarks regarding a major graft probe in which four ministers face allegations of bribery and wrongdoing, and the state bank Halkbank is accused of for links to suspicious money transactions and gold-smuggling from Iran.
President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan looks determined to impose, in violation of the spirit of parliamentary democracy, his will over the government as Jan. 19, the date of the first Cabinet meeting he will preside over, draws near.
