وقال "You are trying to teach a lesson about human rights and international law by being patronizing and using the word urges.".
He indicated that the European Union does not urge Turkey to withdraw from northwestern Syria because "Three million more refugees will arrive in Turkey and then in European countries.".
He then asked why Sweden did not defend the rights of Turkish Cypriots.
In response, Lind said that she "As a guest" You will not get involved in a dispute. She added"I hope that everyone in Turkey will have the opportunity to express their views as openly as you, Minister. Thank you".
Then, Davutoglu turned to her again and said "In Turkey, everyone can express their opinions, but we do not have these double standards.".
The complaints came as tensions between Turkey and the European Union flared again after a Turkish seismic reconnaissance vessel returned to disputed waters from which it withdrew last month on Monday to provide an opportunity for a diplomatic solution.

At a tense press conference after the talks in Ankara, Swedish Foreign Minister Ann Lind repeated the European Union’s calls for Turkey to withdraw the forces it sent to northeast Syria a year ago to persecute Kurdish fighters whom Ankara considers terrorists.
“The strong position of the European Union remains the same. We continue to urge Turkey to withdraw,” Lind said, standing next to his Turkish counterpart Mevlut Cavusoglu.
He added that the European Union also expects constructive steps towards democracy and human rights in Turkey.
Lind also criticized Ankara’s decision to resume exploration operations in the eastern Mediterranean, where Turkey, Greece and Cyprus, members of the European Union, have a bitter dispute over sovereignty over territorial waters.
Çavuşolu clearly expressed his anger when the press conference headed in an unexpected direction.
“You are trying to teach a lesson about human rights and international law, behaving condescendingly and using the word urgency,” he said.
He noted that the European Union does not urge Turkey to withdraw from northwestern Syria because “another three million refugees will come to Turkey and then to European countries.”
He then asked why Sweden did not defend the rights of Turkish Cypriots.
In response, Lind said that as a “guest” she would not get involved in a conflict. “I hope that everyone in Turkey has the opportunity to express their views openly, as you do, Minister. Thank you,” he added.
Then Cavusoglu turned to her and said: “In Turkey everyone can express their opinions, but we do not have these double standards.”
The complaints came as tensions between Turkey and the European Union flared again after a Turkish seismic reconnaissance vessel returned to disputed waters from which it withdrew last month on Monday to provide an opportunity for a diplomatic solution.
