Erdoğan says ‘terror-free Türkiye’ bill to reach parliament soon

President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said a legal package tied to the government’s “terror-free Türkiye” initiative would be submitted to parliament in the coming days, pledging to carry the process forward with the support of political parties.

“We will submit the legislation we are working on to parliament in the coming days,” Erdoğan said following a cabinet meeting in Ankara.

“When the process reaches its goal, all 86 million people will benefit.”

The initiative seeks the complete disarmament and dissolution of PKK, which is designated a terrorist organization by Türkiye, the United States and the European Union.
