27 In August 2014, Recep Tayyip Erdogan won Turkey's first direct presidential election. Later that month, Erdogan tapped Davutoglu to succeed him as the country's prime minster. Hakan Fidan, a key architect of Turkish foreign policy, remains as the head of the country's National Intelligence Organization. The continuity in key decision-makers supports the idea that Ankara's foreign policy will remain consistent during the AKP's next five years in power. Moreover, according to Yasin Aktay, deputy chairman of the AKP who is also in charge of foreign affairs, ‘[We] do not foresee a prominent change in our party's foreign policy’ following the election of Erdogan and a minor cabinet reshuffle.
