These events led to the resignations of the central bank governor and treasury undersecretary and have tested the staying power of the country's three-party government coalition. In response to this instability, the Turkish government appointed former World Bank Vice President, Kemal Dervis, as the new Minister of Economics in hopes of resuscitating the country's fledgling economy. Ciller was elected Prime Minister in June 1993; her True Path party led several coalition governments until 1996. After losing her seat in 1996, her party formed a coalition with the center-right Motherland Party which was followed by an alliance with the conservative far-right Welfare Party. The later move resulted in heightened tension between True Path and the military and business establishment. In the current financial turmoil, Ms. Ciller has attempted to reposition herself as a force that will regain the nation's financial and political stability. TURKEY'S POLITICAL STABILITY 4 MAY 2001 ?
