An overwhelming 60 percent said they did not agree with Turkey's transport minister when he said Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan should become the country’s next president.Thirty-three percent said they wanted Erdoğan to become the president while 7 percent were undecided.
Current President Abdullah Gül's term in office remains unclear as the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) has said Gül was elected for a seven-year term while the main opposition Republican People's Party (CHP) claims a 2007 legal change that reduced the president’s term from seven years to five years should apply to Gül as well, meaning that his term would end this year.
