President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, leader of the ruling Justice and Development Party (AK Party), will meet with party mayors at the Kizilcahamam camp on Monday. Meanwhile, speculation in the Turkish media about an impending cabinet reshuffle is gaining momentum.
Recently, there have been claims that Health Minister Fahrettin Koca had resigned and that some other ministers would be removed from their positions. However, no official decision has been published in the Official Gazette yet.
According to reports, the cabinet reshuffle is expected to take place tonight.
Additionally, President Erdogan will convene the Cabinet tomorrow, with the new ministers taking their places in the cabinet meeting following possible changes in Monday’s meeting.
Recently, Turkish media have made headlines with Koca’s resignation, while Trade Minister Omer Bolat and Labor and Social Security Minister Vedat Isikhan are expected to resign as well.
