“We do not distinguish the security of Ankara from the security of Gaza, Jerusalem and Baghdad” said the president of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

“As long as the Israeli aggression does not stop, we cannot be safe,” said the Turkish president, as reported from Istanbul by Manolis Kostidis.

“I stress that if Israeli aggression under the Netanyahu government does not stop, no state in our region, including Turkey, can feel safe. You see, this situation also applies to all the countries, especially Lebanon and Syria, that are Israel’s neighbors. I have stated that we cannot see the security of Ankara separately from the peace and security of Gaza, Jerusalem, Ramallah, Beirut, Amman and Baghdad. As Turkey, we define and define our security priorities accordingly. We are planning the steps we will take in foreign policy around these data.”

Turkish opposition leader: “We want peace in the Aegean, not war and tension”

“We want good relations with Greece where we have common olive oil, common snacks”

Ozgiur Ozel, president of the Republican People’s Party: “We are of the logic that the Aegean brings peace to both sides of the sea. The Aegean should be a sea of ​​peace and brotherhood, not war and tension. That is why we also consider the catamaran routes that the municipality of Aydinio has started to Patmos to be important. We hope that the trust between Greece and Turkey in the Aegean will increase again, that we will talk about peace, that those who love the same olive oil on both sides of the of the sea, who eat the same snacks, who have fun in the same way, who are not enemies but friends, will have good relations both in tourism and in other sectors based on common interests”.
