Turkey coordinates 'Terror-Free Turkey' security plan following new law
Turkish authorities have convened high-level security meetings to implement the 'Terror-Free Turkey' initiative following the passage of the Law on Strengthening National Solidarity and Social Integration. The legislation, which passed the Grand National Assembly with 467 votes, serves as a legal framework for the ongoing peace and democratic society process.
Interior Minister Mustafa Çiftçi and Speaker of the Parliament Numan Kurtulmuş led a video conference with governors, police chiefs, and gendarmerie commanders from all 81 provinces. The discussions focused on field coordination, real-time monitoring via the Security and Emergency Coordination Center (GAMER), and measures to prevent social provocations and disinformation. The government aims to transition national energy from counter-terrorism toward economic development and production.
In a related development, a delegation from the DEM Party, including Pervin Buldan and Mithat Sancar, met with President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan at Beştepe. The party issued a statement confirming that the 1.5-hour meeting reaffirmed a mutual commitment to continuing the peace process and expressed satisfaction with the legislative support shown in Parliament.
