Turkey approves draft amendments giving president more power

Turkish Parliamentary Commission on
Friday, approved draft constitutional
amendments that would introduce a new
executive presidential system, giving
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan more
powers according to report.
The commission’s nod after nine days of debate
paves the way for a vote in parliament and is
supported by lawmakers from the ruling Justice
and Development Party (AKP) and the far-right
Nationalist Movement Party (MHP).
Under the changes, the prime minister’s post will
be abolished, while the president and vice
president will have full executive powers.
The draft proposal allows the president to be a
party member.
Erdogan had to nominally step aside as AKP
leader after he was elected president in 2014, as
the constitution designates the head of state as
a non-partisan office.
The number of parliamentarians will increase
from 550 to 600 and general elections will be
held every five years, instead of four years, the
report said.
It calls for the next parliamentary and
presidential elections to take place on Nov. 3,
2019.
The centre-left CHP and the pro-Kurdish HDP
are staunchly opposed to the proposed
presidential system, fearing a “dictatorship’’ in
Turkey.
The changes will be put to a referendum, which
the government expects will be held in spring.

Men eat this ancient fruit & you will get bigger manhood size

Are you still amidst the few dudes that are asking whether penis size is essential to women sexual satisfaction? There is no need prolonging this issue, just be aware of this - BABES ENJOY AND CRAVE FOR BIGGER PENIS SIZES! Every chick would like to have a gentleman that is well endowed in penile size and has adequate sexual skills to be able to give her amazing sessions in bed. A lot of chicks would not honestly say the reality about their craving for bigger penises, this is only common. No female wants to be seen as a Ashawo! That is why they pretend.

There are pleasure centers that are located deep into the vagina and around the walls of the vagina . A small or average penis is not capable of stimulating all these pleasure centers and these usually results in a woman not being fully satisfied. But a big...
