“We cannot delete article 301,” said Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan. “There has not yet been a suggestion made by civil society groups to us regarding article 301. But, as the government, we are working on this. If there are no serious, well-thought out suggestions made, we will go ahead on our own to take steps in this direction,” he said. Erdogan did underline to reporters that an outright lifting of article 301 did not look likely in the near future, stating “There are some civil society organizations which have told us only ‘get rid of 301.’ We cannot simply get rid of 301, there is no one who should ask us to do so,” reports Hurriyet.
