Turkey grows, prospers and targets in relation to approaches to independence and the future, sovereign rights have strictly become available for the increase in the diameter of the assault that hits President Erdogan, he said:
“Those who cannot fight our country on the basis of legitimate competition are trying to reject us with threats of unilateral sanctions. In recent weeks, we had threats of sanctions from the European Union on our agenda, and yesterday sanctions from States were announced. United, who have been on the agenda for a while. This more than any country in Turkey of sanctions on CAATS that do not apply to this CAATS. For the first time it applies to our country as a member of NATO. This is an alliance Is this an ally? This decision is a public assault on the sovereignty of our country. “
The justification for the decision, expressing to Turkey, is to receive the S-400 air defense systems from the President of Russia, Erdogan, continued:
“But Turkey has resorted to what in this way? Because the United States for a long time has not allowed the sale of our country by air defense systems into their own hands stayed on the F-35 is producing a close follow-up of thousands of flights in Turkey and giving to the United States. In addition to the obstacles in the Senate also get these systems We also meet any of the conditions that we want to welcome to the United States that we satisfy our need elsewhere. He has attracted the weapon of Sanctions. Put us ahead of Turkey’s takeover of the S-400 and claim that this system is not a technical explanation. It is just an excuse. The main purpose is to make us completely re-dependent on them by blocking the recent advances our country has started. in the defense industry.
In addition, they state this publicly in their own reports. From the beginning, we addressed our interlocutors with the proposal ‘If you have concerns about the S-400, let’s establish a technical working group, let’s solve the problem through dialogue and diplomacy’, but obviously the goal is not to eat grapes but hit the vineyard. If the S-400 problem did not exist, it is understood that similar means would be used for another reason. “

Terrorism our fight, our cross-border operations, our exports of products from the defense industry. defense, all kinds of tools and equipment design based on high technology, software, we will continue to produce with determination. Praise Turkey is no longer this It has already left the point of being locked in with sanctions of all kinds. Of course, there will be problems But every problem will also open a door for us to solve it. Once again we say ‘This song does not end here’, once again we say ‘Don’t stop, keep going.’ You think Turkey is a great ‘call’.
