	Mesut YILMAZ
		We were totally blown away by our entire day with Mesut but our trip to the place where Paul lived and worked was probably the high point of any tour we have ever taken (especially a little carving in the road).
		Mesut, with his movie star looks and genuine charisma is a brilliant scholar who transfers his passion for Turkey to his tour groups.
		He was waiting for us as we departed the ship and included in the tour everything that we had asked to see, and explained everything so well to us that we came away with a wonderful understanding of Ephesus as it was years ago.

		Yilmaz, who last month was cleared by the Supreme Court of corruption charges in a state tender, announced that he would go back to politics.

		Former Prime Minister Mesut Yilmaz, charged with corruption in a bid-rigging scandal that brought down his government seven years ago, defended himself Wednesday before Turkey's highest court, saying he had nothing to do with the deal and that the allegations were politically motivated.

		Yilmaz is the most prominent politician to face such charges during the government of Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan, whose party was elected in 2002 pledging to fight corruption.

	Turkey’s Latest Political Crisis: Why Ecevit was a Logical Choice, The Estimate, December 4, 1998
		Mesut Yilmaz’ government, ruling without a solid majority for some time, had cut a deal with Deniz Baykal’s Republican People’s Party (CHP) under which new elections would be held in April, scheduled for April 18 to coincide with municipal elections.
