Historic bill to run final phase of ‘terror-free Türkiye’ bid
A major framework law will govern the final phase of the “terror-free Türkiye” project with a clear objective of ending the decades-old PKK problem, say officials from the ruling alliance, adding this process will also have positive impacts on the regional peace.
Parliament Speaker Numan Kurtulmuş held last-minute meetings with the representatives of the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) on Aug. 3 to fine-tune the drafted bill and make it ready.
The long-awaited legislative proposal tied to the government’s anti-terror campaign, which was launched in late 2024, is expected to be ratified by the parliament in the next two weeks.
Along with the AKP, its main ally, the Nationalist Movement Party (MHP), the Peoples’ Equality and Democracy Party (DEM Party), the Republican People’s Party (CHP) and the New Path bloc support the process and are expected to introduce the draft bill to the parliament through a joint initiative.
