Delay in Discussion on Phone Surveillance Proposals in Parliament
March 14, 2026
The proposal to amend the Constitution, allowing the Attorney General to approve phone surveillance by the intelligence agency for security reasons, did not achieve consensus in Parliament. Despite discussions, the required majority was not reached. The opposition, particularly from the left-wing party, strongly opposes the proposal, while supporters consider it necessary due to terrorism threats. Further processes will take place in the Assembly, and the intelligence agency will inform opposition members about its operations. The situation remains uncertain regarding the future of the proposal.
