The Turkish constitutional review project, which aims to strengthen the powers of the President of Turkey, which will be put to a referendum on 16 April could derail the country leading to an "authoritarian presidential system", warned today the constitutionalists of Council of Europe.
"Breaking the necessary checks and balances" the proposed reforms "will not respect the model of a democratic presidential system based on the separation of powers," explain the experts in constitutional issues involved in the "Venice Commission" of the Council of Europe .
Because of this, there is a risk that the system be turned into an "authoritarian presidential system" add experts, noting that certainly every State "has the right to choose its own political system, whether presidential, whether parliamentary" or another but this the right "not unconditional".
The constitutionalists worry mainly because the Turkish president will be in the future "to skei own executive power" which would allow him, without being subject to any control, "to appoint and remove ministers and all senior officials based criteria he has set. "
