The Constitution that has been in the works for months will most likely be done by March and may be the subject of an upcoming referendum if needed, Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has said
, Hurriyet Daily News informs.
“If the Constitution cannot be agreed on, then I will put it to a referendum,” Erdoğan said during a Parliamentary group meeting Jan. 30. “The minute we have enough strength for a referendum we will take it to the people.”
Erdoğan also touched upon the recent Cabinet reshuffle, criticizing the media and members of the opposition for speaking on the issue as if it were “about rewards and punishments.”
“The Cabinet is not formed to award positions to deputies, or to give them ranks, it is formed to serve the people,” Erdoğan said.
