(Baonghean.vn)- On August 18, Turkish Prime Minister Ahmed Davutoglu informed President Recep Tayyip Erdogan of the failure to form a coalition government. This failure may force Türkiye to hold a new election in the next few months.

Despite his efforts, Ahmed Davutoglu said that discussions on forming a coalition government between the AKP – the current ruling party – and the Social Democratic Party (CHP) and the Nationalist Party (MHP) – the second and third largest parties in parliament – ​​were unsuccessful. Although Prime Minister Davutoglu failed to fulfill his mission, President Recep still thanked him for his efforts.

It is known that in the election on June 7, the AKP party - the ruling party since 2002 until now - did not win a majority of seats in the parliament and could not form a government. Therefore, the Turkish parliament is at risk of being dissolved and having to hold early elections if it cannot form a government by August 23. And if the above scenario occurs, the Anatolia news agency said, new elections will be held this November.
