The Forum will bring together 150 representatives of government, business, expert circles of the Black Sea countries and European region.

Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan finally put an end to the Turkey of Kemal Ataturk. For the first time in the history of the Republic of Turkey, Chief of Staff along with the army, navy and air force heads resigned before their term expiration. This is an unprecedented phenomenon, but it well fits in the plan adopted by the Justice and Development Party (AKP) to transform the secular state into a moderate Islamist one. In fact, AKP can now celebrate its victory over the generals.
