The Justice and Development Party's (AKP) proposed legislative amendment to solve the 'stray dog' problem, which includes a clause for the 'euthanasia of stray animals,' has also faced opposition from Tarkan.

The singer shared a text on his social media account written by Dr. Güven Eken, which outlines his objections and suggestions regarding the current legal regulation, with the note: "How accurately dear Güven Eken has expressed it."

The AKP is preparing an amendment to the Animal Protection Law for a new regulation concerning stray animals. Acting on the instructions of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, AKP officials have prepared a legislative proposal that includes the 'euthanasia of dogs' to solve the 'stray dog' problem.

The completed legislative proposal is expected to be submitted to the Speaker of Parliament this week.

If the regulation passes through Parliament, the proposal, as reflected in public opinion and discussed in political circles, includes provisions such as carrying out sterilization and vaccination procedures in stages, providing a period for the adoption of dogs, and the 'euthanasia' of animals that are not adopted.
