Kurdish HDP Ready to Discuss Pro-Freedom Constitution Not One-Man System

Peoples’ Democratic Party (HDP) Co-Chair Selahattin Demirtas has announced that the party is ready to discuss replacing the current constitution with a new pro-freedom charter, adding that the party is entirely against changing Turkey’s administrative system to a presidential one in line with President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s ambitions, Hurriyet reports.  

"We are ready to discuss a new and pro-freedom constitution. The new constitution is a big opportunity for resolving the Kurdish question. It is also an opportunity for resolving the problems of Alevis and the problem of [freedom of] faith. Is our sole issue [adopting the] presidential system while all these questions exist?" said Selahattin Demirtas.

Demirtas also announced that the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) has not suggested any particular model for the presidency so far. "The only thing they propose is a one-man model and a one-man system".
