After the cabinet meeting in Ankara, Erdogan said that they are trying to influence regional events in areas such as Gaza, Lebanon, Sudan and Yemen through violence and suffering, and that Turkey is acting with the aim of preventing such processes.
He pointed out that his country is making significant progress in the field of defense industry, stressing that Turkey is “making history” and remains committed to long-term strategic goals in a period of, as he said, major global and regional changes.
– As a government and an alliance, we are aware that we have assumed historical responsibility at a time of historical transformations. We don’t have time for arguments or polemics – Erdogan said.
In his address, he also referred to the status of Istanbul, saying that the city will remain “Turkish and Muslim”, despite, as he stated, the opposition of the “remains of Byzantium”.
He also emphasized the importance of national unity, stressing that Turkey will continue to develop as a unique and strong country.
