In a first, Türkiye on Wednesday appointed an Armenian-origin man as governor of a district.

Berk Acar, 27, will serve as the government's top representative in the Babadag district of the southwestern province of Denizli.

Acar worked as a lawyer after graduating from the Istanbul Bilgi University in 2020.

He qualified for the post after clearing with flying colors an exam conducted by the country's Interior Ministry.
