Presidential Council (Turkey)
The Presidential Council (Turkish: Başkanlık Konseyi) was an advisory body in Turkey lasting from 1983 to 1989. It comprised the military commanders who joined General Kenan Evren in the 1980 coup d'état. It succeeded the National Security Council (1980–1983), of which Evren had been President, which was formally abolished after the 1983 general election, and reconstituted as the Presidential Council.[1] Evren remained President of Turkey until 1989.

gollark: That looks like significantly below half as many cases in vaccinated people, even though vaccination is at 68.1% (at least one dose). Which isn't *great* but isn't "doesn't even seem to work".
