Info | The conservative Motherland Party (ANAP) was founded in 1983. ANAP governed Turkey from 1983 to 1991; formed a brief governmental coalition with the DYP in 1995 and then back to power from July 1997 to November 1998. The party transformed the Turkish economy in the eighties, introducing free-market reforms and down-sizing the public sector, and also applied formally to join the EEC (European Economic Community, today's EU) in 1987. While in opposition, ANAP criticized the Customs Union with the EU arguing that its terms were not in Turkey’s interests. ANAP was one of the big looser in the April 1999 elections and became the fourth Turkish party with 14% of the votes. Following these elections, ANAP got 86 seats in the Parliament. During the last elections in 2002, they got only 5.12% of the votes and wasn't seated in parliament.
