MNA National Desk: Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has congratulated Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on winning the referendum that expands his power.
“It is with great pleasure that I, on behalf of my people and my government, take this opportunity to congratulate you on winning the verdict of the Turkish people in favour of constitutional amendment ushering in the Executive Presidential System,” the PM said in a message.
“The massive turnout in the referendum and the support demonstrate the trust and confidence of Turkish people in your leadership”. She added.
Turkish President Erdogan secured a narrow victory in Sunday’s referendum. In a dramatic finish to the bitterly-fought referendum campaign, the state-run news agency said Erdogan’s Yes camp had won around 51 per cent while the No campaign took 49 per cent with 98 per cent of the votes counted.
