Hurriyet, one of the major Turkish newspapers, reported that Presidential Spokesperson Ibrahim Kalin may be appointed as head of the National Intelligence Organization (MIT).

The reports came shortly after Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan announced his new cabinet during an inauguration ceremony on Saturday.

The new cabinet also included Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan, who occupied the position of director of the National Intelligence Organization and who made important contributions in advancing peace efforts to mend Ankara-Damascus relations.

Akif Cagatay Kilic, a former minister of sports in Turkey, is anticipated to be named as the President's spokesperson, Huriyyet revealed.

Since 2018, Kalin has held the positions of deputy chairman of both the presidential committee for security and international policy and the President's main advisor.

Last week, Erdogan beat his secular, pro-West rival, Kemal Kilicdaroglu, with all the votes counted in light of the historic run-off election that saw the AKP party overthrowing its rivals both in the presidency and parliament after garnering the majority of the vote in both elections.
