https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turkis...ferendum,_2017

Turkey is going to hold a Referendum in April on whether to abolish the post of Prime Minister and transfer executive functions to the President. Parliament will also lose a lot of its ability to scrutinise the executive, conduct enquiries, that sort of thing.

Now the question, really, is whether the military saw this coming and dried to stop it or if they helped it along with the attempted coup.

Regardless, Turkey is now in great danger of falling into the trap of being "just another" Middle Eastern tin-pot Republic like Egypt.
