Turkish Press Review

What is the CHP really doing?

As a political party that places great importance on the idea of Turkey remaining with the West, the Republican People’s Party (CHP) ought to really be in the position of making very sure that reforms aimed at bringing Turkey closer to the European Union are being carried out correctly.

Likewise, the CHP ought to be quite persistent in pushing to see reforms that have yet to be carried out finally implemented. In short, the CHP should be pushing the elected administration when it comes to the topic of the EU. That is if it is actually not opposed to the whole idea of the EU, which it claims to not be. But in the end, we never witness the CHP working to get these reforms passed and such. This being the case, it seems out of character when CHP stalwarts complain, “Turkey is becoming distanced from the West.” Furthermore, we would like then to ask, “If that is in fact the case, what is the CHP doing to help prevent this?”
