for the sake of clearness, story title can be switched to "turkish government" from "AKP", since other than turkish people would not be familiar with the name "AKP"(ruling party name's acronym)

The title is correct. It would be woefully incorrect to say "turkish government". Emails from the party email server have been leaked. If it had been government email servers, then government would be correct.

I'm not saying it's incorrect, it's not a well known acronym outside Turkey though. It could be "Turkey's ruling party" then in light of your comment. But it's ok if everybody's ok with it, just my thoughts.

Only if you've been living under a stone for the past week.
