Bozdag: AKP will not cancel its plans to hold two rallies in Ankara and Istanbul

Deputy Prime Minister Bekir Bozdag said yesterday that the Justice and Development Party (AKP) would not cancel its plans to hold two rallies on June 15 and 16 in Ankara and Istanbul. Bozdag added that the rallies would demonstrate how the AKP supporters would respond to what had been going on in the country in the last two weeks. Warning about provocative moves, Bozdag said, "There are circles who want to provoke the protests. They continue to do so, but the people's common sense will be the biggest obstacle for them."
