Behind the scenes of the Constitutional studies on the headscarf

Hurriyet writer Hande Firat, In today’s article, CHP Chairman Kemal KilicdarogluAfter the “hijab” debut, the President and AKP Chairperson Recep Tayyip ErdoganHe gave information about the work of the “new constitution” called by .

Fırat gave information about the controversial regulation on the definition of “family”, which was discussed in the constitution in question. Noting that the commission within the AKP was in favor of not including the regulation on the definition of “family” in the text of the constitutional amendment, Fırat said, “The reason is simply to respond to the step taken by the CHP, only and one step ahead.”

Fırat continued:

“However, if President Erdoğan says ‘Come in’, the definition of family will also be included in the text. A short sentence was prepared just in case. ‘The family consists of men and women.’ So why was this needed? According to my sources, there is no definite statement about same-sex marriage in the Civil Code, which was written about 100 years ago. The edits left the issue open to interpretation. Therefore, they draw attention to the need for a definition of family. However, party officials are in favor of introducing this regulation alone. Still, President Erdogan has the last word.”

On the other hand, Fırat conveyed the titles and topics of the election presentation to Erdoğan as follows:

“In its current form, it is impossible for the Nation Alliance and HDP to make a constitution together.

The AK Party is well-prepared and advantageous in the new constitution.

The new constitution was delayed until after the 2023 elections.

There is no new constitution on the citizens’ agenda when they go to the elections. The economy is at the top of the agenda.”
