"Let's make a new, civil, libertarian constitution that embraces the dreams of all the people of this country," Erdogan, who was speaking in the southeastern city of Diyarbakir, was quoted as saying by the semi-official Anadolu Agency reported on Friday.

He made the remarks at a houses groundbreaking ceremony in Turkey's largest Kurdish-majority city which was still affected by the February 6 earthquakes, it reported.
