The new prime minister's priorities
There is now an ongoing discussion about who will become prime minister now that Erdoğan has been elected president. Political observers note that Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu is the most likely candidate for this post. I believe that the more important issue is not who will be prime minister, but what he will do.

Merkel to Cameron: I can’t satisfy all Britain’s EU wishes
German Chancellor Angela Merkel told Prime Minister David Cameron she was not prepared to promise fundamental reform of the European Union for London’s sake, but said the bloc did need some changes and that his country should not leave it. In a speech to both houses of Britain’s parliament -- only the third time a German leader had spoken there since World War II -- Merkel, the leader of the EU’s most powerful state, ruled out the prospect of a far-reaching overhaul of the bloc’s treaties, signalling she was open to modest reforms only. “Some expect my speech to pave the way for a fundamental reform of the European architecture which will satisfy all kinds of alleged or actual British wishes. I am afraid they are in for a disappointment,” Merkel said in English. “Others are expecting the exact opposite and they are hoping that I will deliver the clear and simple message here in London that the rest of Europe is not prepared to pay almost any price to keep Britain in the European Union. I am afraid these hopes will be dashed,” she added. In London for a one-day visit, she was speaking at a time when uncertainty about Britain’s future in the EU is rising because of a promise by Cameron to offer Britons an in/out membership referendum, if he wins a national election next year.

Brussels, Paris and Berlin
I think this was the first time when real progress was made in discussions over Turkish-EU ties in two weeks of meetings. Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan visited Brussels on 21 Jan. 2014; one week later, French President François Hollande made his long-expected visit to Ankara. One week after this visit from Paris, the Turkish prime minister flew to Berlin.
