14:03     21 January, 2017

The Turkish parliament approved a new Constitution early Saturday as deputies completed voting on 18 articles, Daily Sabah reports. 

A total of 339 MPs voted in favor of the law that will now head to a referendum that will likely be held in early April.

Proposed changes to the constitution require a simple majority, or 51 percent, in the referendum.
