EDITORIAL

The insecurities of Turkey’s deep state Turkey's deep state is not only harmful to that country's democratic regime but is a serious burden on its economy. In this age of globalization, it has raised obstacles to the purchase of a Turkish bank by a Greek one. According to reports in the Turkish press, the reason the purchase was rejected was that a diplomat who had served in the Central Information Service was a non-executive member on the Greek bank's board.

COMMENTARY

First term judged by second According to all indications, we are heading for early elections. The opinion polls, analyses and the prevailing view in people's conversations indicate that the ruling New Democracy party will be re-elected, though by a smaller majority. The day after the elections, in other words, will be much like today.
