Ironically Gul was the person to sign a legislation a few weeks ago to enable the shutdown of a website in just a matter of few hours (in less than 4 hours to be precise). He either doesn't actually read before signing it or is mocking with people.

They are basically playing the good cop-bad cop with Erdogan.

President of Turkish Republic can't actually deny new laws/legislations though. He can only send it back to the Parliament for them to review again but he has to sign it if it comes back, even if it comes back the same.

He actually said that this is the reason why he signed that law.

But believing him is up to you.
