Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is chairing the meeting of the National Security Council at the Presidential Complex in Ankara, June 2, 2020.
"The negative approaches of some actors, who have come together around the common denominator of animosity towards Turkey, to the legitimate and legal steps Turkey takes in the Mediterranean were evaluated.
"Reiterating Turkey’s determination to maintain without any concession the multifaceted works it carries out for the preservation of Syria’s territorial integrity, clearing the region of terrorist organizations and enabling Syrians to safely and voluntarily return to their country in a dignified manner, the statement noted that the international community was called on to support these efforts of Turkey," it added.
