Erdoğan: “To meet with those who exploit terrorism, is supporting terrorism. Those who take advantage of the soldiers killed will have to answer to the public.”
“THEY DID NOT APPROACH DIALOGUE”
Prime Minister Erdoğan stated the following regarding a series of meetings held with oppositional party leaders to discuss terrorism. “We would like this nice tableau of dialogue to be formed for every matter concerning Turkey. We extended a hand to MHP (The Nationalist Movement Party) for dialogue; however they were not in favor of collaborating. We already can see that BDP (the Peace and Democracy Party) acts as a representative for a terrorist organization. Our mighty public will answer to those exploiters of terrorism through democratic means.”
Meeting with DSP leader Masum Türker, Prime Minister Erdoğan stated; “I was considering a meeting with BDP, however they sent me a CD with accusations that the killed PKK members were tortured. I then changed my mind about holding a meeting with them.”
