"Contrary to appearances, despite their outward appearance of Islamic sensitivity, the actions of the current government are diametrically opposed to core Islamic values. These core values are not about a particular style of dress or the use of religious slogans. The fundamental values of Islam related to governance are respect for the rule of law and the independence of the judiciary, the accountability of those in power, and the protection of the fundamental rights and freedoms of every individual. The recent regression in Turkey's democratic experience is not a result of adherence to Islamic values, but rather a betrayal of them."
