The bill passed easily on the first day of the new session of Parliament with support from the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP), secular opposition Republican People’s Party (CHP) and Nationalist Movement Party (MHP). Only the pro-Kurdish Peoples’ Democratic Party (HDP) voted against. The motion also allows foreign forces usage to Turkish airbases and Turkish territory against the same threats, including Daesh, the PKK and its Syrian affiliate, the Democratic Union Party (PYD) and its People’s Protection Units (YPG) militia.Parliament Speaker Ismail Kahraman said that making a simple, civilian, democratic, libertarian and individual-centered new constitution is a top priority for this legislative year. In his address, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said that he will support Parliament’s efforts for a new constitution and change its bylaws. He stated that he is willing to leave behind the “pointless” arguments with the opposition for the upcoming period, and urged the opposition to end the attacks on the presidency. Both Kahraman and Erdogan thanked the members of the Parliament for their ho**rable stance during the July 15 coup attempt, in which Gülenist Terror Group (FETÖ) linked ******rs went as far as bombing the complex while deputies were inside to show solidarity. Speaking on the problems in Iraq and Syria, Erdogan said that Daish is **t the cause, but the result of ongoing problems in Iraq and Syria, an argument used by those who have plans there. “It is **t reasonable for a country with a 22 million pre-war population could **t be cleansed from Daish’s foreign fighters estimated around 10,000 for over five years. The same goes for Iraq. It is obvious that problem does **t stem from approximately 10,000 foreign fighters,” Erdogan said. Erdogan also criticised the US for supporting the YPG, the Syrian wing of PKK terror organisation, to counter a**ther terrorist group. “Arguments of those who try to confront Daish with YPG have been rendered useless with Euphrates Shield operation,” Erdogan said, adding that Turkey’s efforts prove that local forces can defeat Daish when they receive necessary support. “We witness serious contradiction in the policies of the US in its policies towards our region especially in latest period. While one part of the American administration insists on carrying out joint work with the PKK/PYD-YPG terror organisation in Syria and Iraq, the other part is trying to follow policies closer to our sensitivities. We will try to solve this problem, which is understood to have originated from presidential elections in US, without bringing out permanent damage to the vital interests of our country,” Erdogan said, adding that the 9/11 bill recently appointed by the Congress against Saudi Arabia is a clear violation of the universal principles of law. أكثر... ??????? ??????: Turkish Parliament extends military operation mandate || ??????: ahlam1399 || ??????: اسم منتداك
