Ankara won't allow anyone to step on its rights, laws and interests, Turkey's President Erdogan says
Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan delivers a speech via a live link at the opening ceremony of the Amasya Beltway on July 25, 2020.
Having no designs on territories and resources of other countries, Turkey also does not allow others to step on its interests, the country’s president has said. “We do not have designs on anyone’s right, law, territory, sea, and natural resources. But, we do not allow anyone to step on our own right, law and interest,” Recep Tayyip Erdogan told the opening ceremony of the Amasya Beltway via a video link on Saturday.
Underscoring that Turkey defended the right, law and interests of both its nation and friends on the land, at the sea and in the air, Erdogan said it disappointed those who expected Turkey to “bow down.”
