A confession-like comment came from Prime-Minister Yıldırım about the horse-trading that went on to gain the MHP’s support for the AKP’s proposed constitutional amendment. Yıldırım’s words, ‘There may also be MHP ministers in the presidential period’ have sparked off fresh controversy. CHP members are interpreting this comment to amount to ‘Bribing the MHP’. Bahçeli, however, has said, ‘I imagine they were shouting in the dark.’
