Turkish deputy PM Numan Kurtulmuş said on Monday that Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu will be able to form government within the mandatory period.
Speaking prior to a meeting held at the AK Party headquarters in Ankara, Kurtulmuş said that the possibility of an early election is unlikely.
"I believe our prime minister will be able to form the government within the allotted time," Kurtulmuş told reporters in Ankara, adding that a coalition without the AK Party was not possible.
