“Turkey’s President Approves Amendment Granting Government Greater Power in Times of Crisis”

The President of Turkey has approved an amendment to the law on mobilization and military service, as reported by the official Resmi Gazete publication. This amendment grants the government the authority to declare a state of emergency or partial mobilization in the event of imminent danger or war. The government will publish and enforce this decision, and it will be considered a legal document included in the official record. Additionally, previous decisions concerning mobilization, armed forces utilization, disarmament, and defense preparations may be reviewed and altered. Some Turkish media outlets suggest that this amendment allows for the mobilization of veterans previously discharged during peace times or after serving in non-combat roles during conflicts, including those discharged following the attempted coup in 2016.
