Recep Tayyip Erdoan was elected President in April 2014.
Erdoan supported the constitutional referendum in 2017 which changed Turkey's parliamentary system into a presidential system, thus setting for the first time in Turkish history a term limit for the head of government (two full five-year terms)
Erdoan also tightened controls over the Internet, signing into law a bill which allows the government to block websites without prior court order on 12 September 2014
