Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said Friday his ruling Justice and Development (AK) Party was the party that finished recent elections as the first party in all seven regions of Turkey.
Prime Minister Erdogan informed parliamentarians about the government's democratic move process and its content in the parliamentary general assembly which convened to debate "Democratic Move" in Ankara.
The AK Party was the single party that got its deputies elected in 80 provinces out of a total of 81 provinces. Why? This is because we embraced all of our people and did not isolate any one. There is no discrimination in our understanding, Erdogan stressed.
As of tomorrow (Saturday), we are going to reach our nation. We will explain the democratic move in all 81 provinces of Turkey, Erdogan said.
Democracy is not a reason for fear but is the cure of all fears, Erdogan noted.
Turkey's recent history has shown us that ignoring problems does not end problems but makes them more complex, Erdogan also said.
