In his speech to exporters of his country, the Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan he said that “we are loved from Africa to Europe, from Latin America to Asia. After our electoral victory, love overflowed on the streets of the entire planet.”

As broadcast from Istanbul by Manolis KostidisThe Erdogan he said: “The steps that Turkey has taken in the last 21 years in foreign policy have also multiplied exports. For example, our embassies in Africa increased from 12 to 44, and our trade increased from $4.3 billion to $40 billion. In Latin America the number of our embassies increased from 6 to 18 and trade increased from $800 million to $17.4 billion.

After the election victory, the love that overflowed in the streets from Africa to Asia, from Latin America to Europe shows the love not only in our face but also in our country”.

New test for “Kizil Elma”

While Erdogan has stated that he will discuss with Kyriakos Mitsotakis the issue of armaments, a new test of the “Kizil Elma” unmanned combat vehicle took place in Turkey. In 2024 mass production will begin, in 2025 the first test will take place on the aircraft carrier Anadolu.

Immigrant

The immigration issue is at the center of the discussion of Turkish analysts, who – as broadcast from Istanbul by Manolis Kostidis- comment that “Greece in the Aegean and the wall on the Evros took serious measures for the refugee”.

Also, they wonder if “Greece is the border of Europe or Turkey?”.

Military analyst Abdullah Agar reported: “Greece is building a wall on our border. He has also taken serious measures to block crossings to the islands, and he did this with EU funds. For us there is a problem.

To the west we have a huge wall. We too were forced to build a wall on our southwest border. The question is this, is the border of the West where we built our wall, or is it the border of Greece? This is important as the West sees us as a repository of immigrants and refugees.”

Erdogan’s attack on Imamoglu: “Istanbul is living in the era of misery”

“We opened the Hagia Sophia and we are building mosques all over Istanbul, said the Turkish president

In particular he said: “Until today we have resurrected many works of our ancestors which had been abandoned. According to the will of Muhammad the Conqueror, Hagia Sophia met again with a prayer to Muhammad and we ended the nostalgia of 86 years. With the mosque in the Chamlitza area, we built a wonderful and majestic project which became the symbol of the city. We built the mosque in Taksim Square, once the symbol of the regime, and we place a rose in the heart of the city.

In recent years, Istanbul at the local government level has been living an era of misery and decline. In the next 9 months we will work hard and save Istanbul from this era of misery.”

Responding to the Turkish president, Imamoglu said: Erdogan lies in front of a mosque, we ended the era of waste

The mayor of Istanbul said: “The honorable president spoke about a time of retreat and misery in Istanbul and he did this at the inauguration of a mosque. The last thing one can do is lie in front of a mosque. That is why I condemn this statement. Because we have ended your own era of misery and waste and you have not been able to get out of gloom.”
