Based turkish president says Turkey should consider criminalizing adultery again.
A wise leader, in my opinion, who has a vision for a cure for the present day's degeneracy.
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-turkey-adultery/turkey-should-again-consider-criminalizing-adultery-erdogan-says-idUSKCN1G42BUANKARA (Reuters) - Turkey should again consider criminalizing adultery, President Tayyip Erdogan said on Tuesday, revisiting an issue that caused outrage among secular Turks and warnings from the European Union when his party raised it more than a decade ago.
“This is a very old issue, far-reaching. It should be discussed. It was already in our legal proposals (in 2004) in the first place. At that time we took a step in accordance with the EU’s demands, but we made a mistake,” he said.
Erdogan’s comment that by meeting EU standards Turkey made a mistake underscores the growing divide between Ankara and Brussels and may not bode well for a coming summit with the bloc in March.
Turkey decriminalized adultery for women in the late 1990s. It had long been legal for men.
