Turkey's largest opposition party has laid out terms for joining a coalition government, including forcing President Recep Tayyip Erdogan not to exceed his constitutional powers.
The ruling party, which Erdogan founded, lost its parliamentary majority in the June 7 elections. It is expected to enter a coalition with one of the three other parties represented in parliament or seek a fragile minority government.
Main opposition leader Kemal Kilicdaroglu said Monday his party was not ruling out a coalition with any party.
He said however, that the party had a number of "principles" others should adhere to, including ensuring that Erdogan — a dominant figure — does not "meddle in everything."
Kilicdaroglu also cited fighting corruption, changing Turkey's foreign policy and media freedoms as conditions for a coalition partnership.
