TURKISH OPPOSITION PARTIES<br />
STAND AGAINST COUP BID<br />
Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yildirim (at right) and the leader of<br />
the Republican People’s Party, Kemal Kilicdaroglu (at left), hold<br />
a joint press conference after a meeting at Cankaya Palace in<br />
Ankara, Turkey on July 19, 2016.<br />
Kilicdaroglu said “I had some concerns and I expressed my<br />
concerns to Mr. Prime Minister. Especially I said the violent<br />
acts against rank and files who only listened to orders were<br />
not right and expressed that those [acts] needed to be<br />
investigated. It is our duty to resolve tension in society through<br />
cooperation,” Kilicdaroglu told reporters during the press<br />
conference.<br />
“The [Turkish] society went through a serious trauma. We need<br />
to return to normal urgently,” Kilicdaroglu added, as Yildirim<br />
thanked him for the show of support.<br />
