Chris,
The current president of Turkey, in office since 2007, is Abdullah Gull.
Note the umlaut or dieresis, (2 dots), above the u.
The current prime minister, in office since 2003, is Recap Tanya Endogen,
with no accented letters shown.
My usual source for info of this type is http://www.rulers.org. you could
also check their biographies at Wikipedia.
We can take this off list if you'd like more on how to create accented
letters in plain text or rich text formats.
HTH. JH

about the economics of a lot of different countries from 2011.
