/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Turkish Cabinet has appealed to the parliament
to hold early general elections June 24. In an address to the nation
PM Recep Tayyip Erdogan called to review the Constitution to entitle
people to elect President.
Besides, the PM offered to elect parliament for 4 years instead of
5 and elect President for 5 years instead of 7 with a right to be
re-elected for a second term.
The move comes after Turkey’s constitutional court annulled last
Friday’s vote to elect a new president, BBC reports.
