*Turksih President: Education In Kurdish Is Out Of Question

President Ahmet Necdet Sezer said that education and broadcast in Kurdish language were different things. ''Article 42 of our Constitution clearly states that education can only be done in the official language. Therefore education in another language is out of question under our Constitution. But broadcast in another language would be decided by the government. Then we will also express our views,'' he said. President Sezer added that death sentence could be lifted without making any constitutional amendment.
