Which Turkey Policy Will Prevail?

In recent years, the main discourse of the Justice and Development Party (AK Party) has been to be "National and Native."
There is a smear campaign that started ahead of the April 2017 constitutional referendum that aims to prevent Erdoğan's re-election in 2019
Clearly, the primary meaning of Erdoğan's quest for comprehensive change is to give some officials who have been carrying out demanding tasks for a long time an opportunity to rest by letting them hand over their positions to successors.
As long as the AK Party continues to blend a commitment to transforming Turkey and an eagerness to protect it from attacks, the opposition will continue to feel inadequate
Collapse of Yenikapı Consensus, the Symbol of United Turkey?

It would be very wrong to compare the April vote with previous constitutional reforms, which were forcefully created by the representatives of the coup tradition
The constitutional vote on Sunday constitutes Turkey's best solution to its years-long political, governing and democratic problems
If the ‘yes' vote wins in Sunday's referendum, Turkey will get rid of the tutelage in its politics, which is the root cause of the country's chronic crises
Turkey will have adopted a new system of government capable of overcoming parliamentarianism's structural crises when the vote count ends
Turkish people are really fed up with the stereotyped opposition news against their country by certain Western media outlets such as the recent one by the Economist
President Erdoğan's Diyarbakır meeting played a big role in changing the way that Turkey's Kurds, who are indifferent toward the proposed changes, think about the April vote
