The Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yıldırım said that the process to draft the new constitution had been commenced.
Speaking after the meeting of Council of Ministers in the Presidential Complex in Ankara, he said that the ruling Justice and Development (AK) Party and the opposition Republican People's Party (CHP) and the Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) had reached a consensus on establishing a new, democratic constitution.
"We have agreed to make minor changes to the current constitution, and the process to draft a whole new constitution has started," the Daily Sabah cited him a saying.
Yesterday, the Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan met with political party leaders at the Presidential Complex to express his gratitude for their stance against the coup attempt on July 15 and receive feedback from the leaders on steps that will be taken in the near future.
