Following a series of failed coalition talks, Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu has handed back the mandate to form a government to President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.<br /><br /> The president assigned him the task of finding a junior coalition partner when Davutoglu’s conservative AK Party lost its overall majority in parliamentary elections on June 7, 2015. <br /><br /> If no government is formed by Sunday, fresh elections are likely to be held in the autumn of 2015.
