Turkey hopes to turn a new page in its relations with the European Union. This was stated by the Turkish President, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, in a telephone conversation with the President of the European Council, Charles Michel, reported AFP, citing a statement from the Turkish presidency.
Erdogan suggested that Michelle pull Turkey and Europe out of the vicious circle in which some drag them with their constant attempts to provoke crises. This could be done by restarting negotiations on the basis of common interests.
Today, the Turkish president said that the US sanctions against his country’s defense industry over Russia’s S-400 missile systems were an “attack on Turkey’s rights.”
“This law on sanctions against the opponents of the United States in 2017 has not been applied against any country other than Turkey. For the first time in the face of our country it is running as a member of NATO. What alliance is this. This decision is a attack on our sovereignty. The real goal is to block the progress of our defense industry and return us to complete dependence on them. “
Erdogan recalled that he resorted to a deal with Russia for the S-400 after a failed deal with the United States over Patriot missiles.
