In a major court case, Turkey’s ruling AK Party has been accused of subverting the country’s secular government. The Turkish constitutional court is expected to rule in a few weeks’ time on whether the party should be shut down and its leaders banned from national politics. Also, prosecutors in Turkey have indicted 86 people from Ergenekon, a mysterious nationalist group, over an alleged coup. Many are still at large. Guest: Bulent Aliriza, Senior Associate at the Center for Strategic and International Studies and director of CSIS’s Turkey Project.
