After some time, the family moves to Silifka. As a child, Turgut wanted to become a pilot. This was prevented by an injury, obtained when falling from a donkey, as a result of which he damaged his hand.

He moves to the family to Sotut, where Turgut begins to study. In connection with the activities of his father, the family often moved, as a result of which Turgut received a full secondary education in Mardin. He graduated from the Higher School in Kong and Kaiseri. He studied at Istanbul Technical University, which graduated from the year, an engineer by education.

The Ozal family was in a short -lived marriage. After the divorce, the Ozal will marry a colleague for work Semra Ozal. They had three children: Ahmet, Zaneb, Ephery. The beginning of political activity for a year worked in the United States. After serving in the army, he lectured at the Middle Eastern Technical University. In the parliamentary elections of the year, his party receives places from possible.

Turgut Opala is the forty-fifth prime minister of Turkey. In the elections of the year, the Ozala party receives deputy places. Turgut Ozal again holds the post of prime minister. The unsuccessful attempt on June 18 in the Ataturk sports salon at the Congress of the Party of the Fatherland Cartal Demigal made an attempt on the Ozal life. Cartall Demig, firing twice, wounded Ozala's hand.

As a result of the shootout, 18 people were injured. Among the wounded was the Minister of IMren Aikut. Cartall Demig was sentenced to death, which was later replaced by 20 years in prison. During his presidency, Ozal forgave Kartala Demig. The presidency for the first time in the history of Turkey in the elections needed to hold a second round. In the first round, Turgut Ozal received votes, and his opponent Fethi Chelikbash received 18 votes.

In the second round, Turgut Ozal scored voices, and his enemy received 17 votes. In November, the eighth president of the Turkish Republic took office. Having accepted power from General Kenan Ewren, Turgut Opal-turned the last page in the history of 9-year military government. Who is this person, with whose name they associate deep changes in the life of Turkey? Speaking of his past, the president emphasizes that "he achieved everything, with his labor, without any help." There is no exaggeration in this statement.

Turgut Ozal was born in the year in the city of Malaya, in the southeast of the country. His father was a petty banking servant and belonged to the category of unprovable ones. So the mother of the future president had to work. Having a secondary education, she taught in primary school. The head of the family died early, leaving three sons in the care of the mother, who, despite the constraint in funds, was able to give children education.

All biographers of the Ozalov family unanimously note the great abilities and enviable perseverance of the brothers. Having successfully graduated from the Lyceum, they entered the Istanbul Technical University. How children from the needy family received a state scholarship. After graduating from a university with an electrical engineer, Turgut went to the United States for advanced training after a while.

After returning to his homeland, he worked in various state institutions and at the enterprises of the private sector, gradually climbing the service ladder. In the year, fate again abandoned the future president in the United States, where he served in the apparatus of the World Bank. In the year, Ozala was appointed as an adviser to the prime minister, at the same time he became one of the leaders of the state planned organization.

After the military coup in September, the government was formed under the leadership of Buland Uluus. Ozalu in the new office was offered the post of deputy prime minister for economic issues. In May, after the military lifting the ban on political activity, Ozal reappeared in the field of view of the Turkish public. This time as the founder and leader of the party of the Fatherland.

A cool turn occurred in his fate. If before he was engaged in mainly economic issues, now he turned to politics. Describing the newly created party, its leader remarked: "We are conservatives in matters of morality, liberals in the economy and progressives in regard to social justice." In November, the party of the Fatherland received in the elections the majority of deputy mandates in the Great National Assembly Parliament, and the Ozal formed the government.

He left the post of prime minister 6 years later in connection with the election of the head of state. If we add to the said that the president is married, has three children and is fluent in English, a brief biographical certificate can be considered complete. However, these dry facts do not give a sufficient idea of ​​the outstanding personality of the head of the Turkish state.

Understanding this, I officially asked to meet with Turgut Ozal. After a couple of days, a positive response was received and the meeting time was scheduled.Ozal accepted me in the so -called presidential part of the Great National Assembly, in the building, the severity of architectural lines and interior decoration resembling the temple. In the reception, there are many visitors.

Deputies, ministers, governors of different provinces, and just walkers who arrived from distant villages. The Ozal almost every day for many hours accepts people from all over the country. Recently, he came up with the initiative to establish solid days of reception of the population “Folk Days”. In the prescribed minute, I am sorting out the most characteristic features of the president, which are noticeable, so to speak, without full -time acquaintance.

First of all, the Ozal is striking in its inexorage. He travels a lot around the country, meets with people, speaks to journalists, on radio and television. Moreover,, as a rule, does not use cheat sheets. Regardless of the audience, he speaks simply, clearly, reasonably, practically without resorting to slogan pathetic. The president is distinguished by political innovation. Perhaps it was it that contributed to the liberation of the country's foreign policy from the previous stereotypes.

There is no need to go far for examples. Let us take the relationship between Turkey with our country, which, due to a number of problems for decades, stomped on the spot. Last year, the issue of information about the flights of airplanes over the Black Sea was settled for 17 years. The work on the consular convention, which the parties could not sign for 20 years, was completed. For more than a year now, a checkpoint has been operating on the Soviet-Turkish border in the area of ​​the Georgian village of Sarpi, which is more than half a century closed for international message.

Of course, the dynamic development of relations between our states is largely owed to the radical transformations that occurred in our country. Ozal itself does not deny this, recognizing that "the policy of perestroika and publicity in the Soviet Union is an additional factor that has a beneficial effect on Soviet-Turkish relations." All this is so. However, one cannot but take into account the roles of our political partner, without mutual understanding with whom it is simply impossible to solve the overgrown problems unilaterally.

And there is no doubt in the fact that with our southern neighbor, there is no doubt. And this is a considerable merit of Ozala, which said: "Türkiye is a country that can best evaluate phenomena of restructuring in the USSR, understand the problems that arise in the path of this process." After a short handshake, Ozal invites you to sit on a wide leather sofa.

He sits nearby, on the canapes. They say that it is so, nearby, and not on the contrary, the Ozal sits, taking visitors. I take a moment of the moment, I look around the cabinet. In a rather spacious room, decorated with oak panels, a secret-secretary table is thrown into the eyes. On it, in absolute order, piles of folders and papers are laid out. At the table is a large TV. The President constantly monitors the events in the world, preferring the programs of the American television company SIN-EN.

Mr. Ozal, for about six years you headed the Turkish government. Now we have taken the highest state post. What feelings do you experience? Successfully working at a trusted post, a source of great happiness. I recall the stormy debates of the year, which almost all underwent under the sign of the presidential election. The discussions mainly unfolded around one question: will the Ozal candidate or not?

Opinions on this subject were divided even in the Party of the Fatherland itself. As a result, the Ozal, after listening to everyone, decided to participate in the struggle and won. Explaining the course of his thoughts on the eve of the decision, Ozal said: “If I exhibition my candidacy, I will call the prime minister my“ secretary ”appointed by me. If I offer another candidate instead, the future president will be considered a “puppet”.

Well, logical.
