French President Emmanuel Macron welcomed the “demonstration of the European Union’s ability to show toughness” towards Turkey by imposing sanctions on its activities in the eastern Mediterranean.
“We gave Turkey a chance,” he said in October, “but we unanimously note that Turkey continued its provocative actions,” Emanuel Macron said after the European summit in Brussels.
The new sanctions the European Union is preparing show that the EU will no longer accept destabilizing actions in the wider region, he said, adding that the Union remains open to dialogue with Turkey.
“All Heads of State and Government have activated these sanctions, which was immediately understood by our Turkish friends, who reacted this morning,” said Emanuel Macron, referring to the decision of the European summit to impose sanctions on people. and additional measures (adding new names to the existing list) from March, when the situation will be reconsidered, if Turkey continues with its actions.
For six months, they have been saying: “France is completely alone” in this matter, he recalled his satisfaction that the Paris persuasion effort is now “more understandable” because “this process is the only one that can exert enough pressure on Pavo” . “Sometimes we are right to be clear and dynamic when behaviors are not acceptable.”
Emanuel Macron once again denounced the actions of Turkey in Libya, where “it threatens our interests on the issue of immigration, does not allow effective coastal control and takes the jihadists to the exit zone towards Europe.” “Turkey continues to act unilaterally and arbitrarily in Syria … which poses the risk of reestablishing a caliphate,” said Macron, who also denounced Turkey’s actions in the Caucasus.
