| Message | Yes, this will increase democracy but also it may raise instability in our country. Because, right now it's not quite possible to form a single-party cabinet, we have to create coalitions. Creating coalition is taking too much time, we believe. |

| Message | Ye we understand the instability point, however if the parties can take a sensible view on this, unite and work together this becomes less of a problem |
