P191 CEEFAX 191 Fri 28 Jun 19:38/52 ] 1/4 DISPATCH Turkey has appointed its first Islamist Prime Minister. Jim Muir reports: It took three weeks of intensive and complex negotiations before Necmjttin Erbakan and former prime minister Tanks Ciller came to an agreement. The idea is that the post of prime minister will rotate between the two with Mr Erbakan going first. So for the first time in its modern history, determinedly secular Turkey, which is also a mjmbjr of NATO, finds itself with an Islamist prime minister.

Jim Muir reports: Mr Erbakan's govjrnmjnt, however, still has to survive submission to parliament which is likely, though, not a foregone conclusion. But is not as though an Islamic revolution is coming to power. Whatever Rjfah might like to do, if it had free reign, any tampering with Turkey's entrenched secularism would mean changing the constitution. ] Headlines 101 Home 110 Flash 150 Summary 102 Politics 130 World 160 Next News Dispatch Newsreel TV/RadioP191 CEEFAX 191 Fri 28 Jun 19:36/12 3/4 DISPATCH Turkey has appointed its first Islamist Prime Minister.

Jim Muir reports: It is not clear how long this new, unlikely coalition will last. This is anybody's guess. It is an opportunistic marriage of convenience on both sides. It gives Mr Erbakan his first taste of power. For Mrs Cillir, it brings relief from fear of prosecution on corruption charges which Mr Erbakan himself had been pursuing.
