“The situation in Turkey demonstrates a serious historical process in the country. The President Erdogan, who is the Islamist, changes the old system, which was built by Ataturk and returns absolute power, as it was during the sultanate. In fact, he became a king in the presidential republic with unlimited powers, and it may be the first step towards the total dictatorship”, – said the head of the Odessa city organization of the European Party of Ukraine, the Deputy head of the Party Ruslan Chernolutsky, commenting on the referendum in Turkey on one of the TV channels.
“A dictatorship always entails a lack of economic growth, and as a result the collapse of the economy. For 30 years Turkey has built a high-level economy, and it has had every chance to become a full member of the European Union in the near future. Today, these trends in Turkey shows tha they made a big step back. Both Europe and the civilized world, do not accept such approach”, – he added.
