CEVAP:

It was obvious that the whole process of making a new constitution wasn’t democratic. On the one hand, political parties were shut down by MGK. On the other hand, there was a ban on criticizing the new constitution draft. In addition, there was another ban on criticizing the talks given by the head of the councils, Kenan Evren, with regard to the new constitution draft. As a result of these restrictions, the constitution was adopted by the 91.7% of the popular vote.
