, Hurriyet Daily News reports.
“Those who are talking about immunities should speak in accordance with party discourse,” Erdoğan was quoted as saying yesterday during a long, closed-door meeting at party headquarters with AKP lawmakers, as well as AKP provincial chairs from eastern and southeastern Anatolia.
The prime minister noted all the concerns and advised his provincial chairs to explain the government’s investments in the region while adding that they were still working on the issue of the immunity files.
