He returned to his provocative statements president of Turkey Tayyip Recep Erdogan who during his speech to the Turkish secret services, as reported by SKAI correspondent Manolis Kostidis, repeated the reports about “blue country”.

“Turkey is strengthening its power as a game shaper on the world chessboard day in and day out. This is expressed by many of our interlocutors from Europe to Asia” Erdogan said and added “news and articles are being published about our growing presence in world politics, sometimes motivated by envy. Contrary to what some claim, there has been no change of axis in our countryour country has found its true axis. The name of this axis is the axis of Turkey”, he even noted and added: “We don’t behave like we used to, thinking about what other people say. We define our policies around Turkey. We try to do this no matter what anyone says. We defend our country’s interests both diplomatically and militarily. Our activities are an example of this. Liberation of Karabakh with our brothers from Azerbaijan is one of them. Our will to protect the Blue Homeland from the Aegean to the Mediterranean and the Eastern Mediterranean is one of them. The achievements of our country were not accidental.”

At the same time, Mr. Erdogan, referring to Israel, emphasized that “Many of their agents have been arrested. They left. This is the beginning, there will be more steps to come.”

At the same time, Ibrahim Kalin announced that an MIT academy would be established during the event for the 97th anniversary of the establishment of the Turkish secret services.
