Scandal in Turkmenistan: Is Gurbanguly Berdimuhammedov Illegitimate Son of Saparmurat Niyazov?
Is the acting president of Turkmenistan, Gurbanguly Berdimuhammedov, also the illegitimate son of former authoritarian president, Saparmurat Niyazov? That is what Pravda is reporting. If true, is there not a little 'conflict of interest' here? Is Turkmenistan adopting a hereditary presidency?
