/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Turkey is facing a political crisis.
The struggle between different political parties
involves Turkey into a lingering political crisis,
said Olli Rehn, the European Union's Commissioner for
Enlargement.
Turkey's Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan also
warned against negative consequences of banning his
AKP. `Our economy will be damaged. We already witness
outflow of foreign capital. We are accused on
intention to impose the Shariath on secular Turkey.
But we are a party of ordinary Turks. Faithful Turks
are defenders of secular state. Turkey managed to
maintain balance between Islam and democracy, RFE/RL
reports.
In March 2008, the Turkish Constitutional Court said
it will consider a request to ban the ruling political
party of PM Erdogan.
Earlier, the CC banned two parties for using religion
for political purposes.
