Turkish government administrative appointments

Overview

President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has implemented a series of high-level government appointments and removals across various Turkish ministries and public institutions, as published in the Official Gazette.

Initial changes included significant shifts in the Treasury and Finance Ministry, notably the appointment of Bekir Bayrakdar as Deputy Minister. Other early appointments spanned the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Social Security Institution, the Ministry of National Defense, and the State Opera and Ballet.

Recent administrative updates have expanded significantly. In the Ministry of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change, new deputy general managers were appointed for roles including Environmental Impact Assessment, Permits and Inspection, and Geographic Information Systems. This ministry also saw numerous provincial director appointments or removals across regions such as Sakarya, Balıkesir, Bolu, Kayseri, Denizli, Karaman, Muğla, Muş, Kocaeli, Ordu, and Kastamonu.

Further high-level personnel changes include the appointment of Kutluhan Taşkın as Deputy Minister of Treasury and Finance and Şinasi Candan to the Revenue Administration. Conversely, several officials were removed, including Mahmut Sütcü, President of the Capital Markets Board, and İbrahim Ömer Gönül, President of the Public Oversight, Accounting and Auditing Standards Board. Other changes affected the National Lottery Administration, the Ministry of National Education, the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, and the Ministry of Culture and Tourism.

Beyond personnel, recent decrees addressed urban and infrastructure policy, extending urban transformation construction assistance in Istanbul until December 31, 2027, and authorizing urgent expropriations for projects in Mardin, Denizli, and Samandağ.
