Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan speaks to media about the new Turkish lira due to come on line in the new year during a press conference in Ankara, Turkey on Thursday, 16 September 2004. The sign in the background reads: 'Give the prestige back' (to the Turkish currency). Members of Erdogan's Islamic-rooted ruling party, Justice and Development, insisted adultery should be made a crime, but refrained from introducing a measure to ban it during parliament debates Thursday.
