It does not stop its provocative rhetoric towards Greece and Cyprus Turkeywith the Foreign Ministry accusing them of having “maximalist demands in the Eastern Mediterranean”.
The statement of the ministry:
“The document, especially the part of the Eastern Mediterranean, which refers to our country, seems to have been dictated by two EU members. who have maximalist claims to maritime jurisdiction, ignoring the rights of Turkey and the Turkish Cypriots in this sea and therefore not in line with international law, customary law, and even the EU acquis. It seems to be contradictory and cut off from reality. It is obvious that this document will make the EU part of the problems and not the solutions in the Eastern Mediterranean and will not lead it to the right strategies. “
At the same time, the Minister of Foreign Affairs Mevlüt Tsavousoglu provokes again with the issue of the minority of Thrace, claiming that they are deprived of basic rights.
In fact, he calls on the Islamic Conference to claim their rights.
“The Muslim Turks, who keep alive the call to prayer for Muhammad, for 7 centuries in Western Thrace and Cyprus for 5 centuries, are deprived of their basic rights in the 21st century! “How is it fair not to claim the rights of the Muslims of Cyprus or Western Thrace just because you have differences with Turkey?”
