It portrays itself as a moderate party, but opponents, including the President Ahmet Necdet Sezer worry that it could be a front for Islamists, or at least anti-secularists - Turkey is officially secular. It won a landslide victory in the 2002 general elections, and its leader, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, is now Prime Minister of Turkey.
