国民救済党
In 1975 Süleyman Demirel, president of the conservative Justice Party (, AP) succeeded Bülent Ecevit, president of the social-democratic Republican People's Party (, CHP) as Prime Minister. He formed a coalition, the "Nationalist Front ()", with Necmettin Erbakan's Islamist National Salvation Party (, MSP), and Alparslan Türkeş' far-right Nationalist Movement Party (, MHP). The MHP used the opportunity to infiltrate state security services, seriously worsening the low-intensity war that had been waging between rival factions.
