AKP Group Chairman Abdullah Güler: 'The "Partisan President" system, which the opposition criticizes heavily, could be discussed'

Journalist Fatih Atik asked AKP Group Chairman Abdullah Güler about the new Constitution process and the exclusion of New Welfare Party leader Fatih Erbakan from the tea reception held at the TBMM during a live broadcast.

Güler stated that both TBMM Speaker Numan Kurtulmuş and the AKP would embark on a tour regarding the new Constitution, and that no changes would be made to the first 4 articles.

Atik wrote in his post, "According to reports from the AK Party, the 'Partisan President' system, which the opposition criticizes heavily, could be discussed." Regarding Erbakan's exclusion from the tea reception, Güler said, "It did not develop as a planned event. It was suggested by the Speaker of the Parliament at that moment. It happened because it developed in the moment; it was not within the framework of a special plan."

Atik conveyed what AKP Group Chairman Güler, who was a guest on TGRT Haber, said via his social media account. Writing that "Both Numan Kurtulmuş and the AK Party will embark on a tour regarding the new Constitution," Atik used the following expressions regarding Güler's answers:

"THERE WILL BE NO RETURN TO THE PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM"

"Following TBMM Speaker Numan Kurtulmuş, the AK Party Group Management will visit political parties.

AK Party Group Chairman Abdullah Güler announced that they would visit the parties after Kurtulmuş.

Güler explained to TGRT Haber:

- No changes will be made to the first 4 articles
- The 50+1 system will remain exactly as it is
- There will be no return to the parliamentary system
- The oversight authority of the TBMM may be increased

According to reports from the AK Party, the 'Partisan President' system, which the opposition criticizes heavily, could be discussed."

"THERE IS NO CONSCIOUS SITUATION"

Writing that "It has emerged why Fatih Erbakan was not invited to the 'tea chat' in Parliament," Atik wrote that Güler said, “There is no conscious, special situation. It did not develop as a planned event. It was suggested by the Speaker of the Parliament at that moment. It happened because it developed in the moment; it was not within the framework of a special plan.”
