ISTANBUL – ANSWER. Turkey’s Energy Minister Fatih Donmez has raised the issue of renegotiation of the Lausanne Treaty. “With the First World War and the wars that followed, there were some conditions that are not clear and perhaps these laid the groundwork for today’s discussions. One of them is Lausanne. “But 100 years have passed, I think we can sit down to discuss them, to negotiate,” he characteristically stated. Donmez, in an interview with the television channel Kanal 7, again blamed Athens and said that “if you see what Greece supports, it is like trapping us on our shores.” With God’s help, they will abandon their mistakes as soon as possible ” , said.
However, Recep Tayyip Erdogan promises the citizens of his country that he will defend the sovereign rights of Turkey from space to the “Blue Homeland”. “We are building a strong deterrence infrastructure.” As part of our goal to become a technology-driven country, from the ‘Blue Homeland’ to cyberspace and space, we will defend our sovereign rights in all fields, “said the Turkish president in a speech after the cabinet meeting.
Erdogan is trying to reach out to various countries in the context of lifting the isolation imposed on Turkey and announced a free trade deal with Britain, at the same time opening up to Israel. “After lengthy negotiations, we have reached the point of signing a free trade agreement with Great Britain. Tomorrow (today) we will sign this agreement. “This will be our second most important trade agreement, after the customs union,” he said. Erdogan said Ankara would like to have better relations with Israel, adding that he did not agree with Tel Aviv’s position on the Palestinian issue. He did not mention other differences with Israel and stressed that Turkey’s desire is to improve relations.
Meanwhile, Greece’s new weapons program is causing annoyance in Turkey, and this was evident in Hulusi Akar’s remarks. “The state of the Greek economy is known. They have problems. However, despite the problems and the cost of reducing food, clothing and the salary of each Greek citizen, they started an equipment campaign, an equipment fashion. Buy as many planes as you want, as many submarines, as many ships as you want. They are not enough for you, “said the Turkish Defense Minister on Sunday in his speech during his visit to Libya.
Akar once again blamed Athens and stated that “our Greek neighbors are taking provocative actions, taking provocative steps and increasing tension in the region.”
