President Recep Tayyip Erdogan criticized the Secretary General of the Opposition Republican People’s Party (ChP) and presidential candidate from the Union of Nation Kemal Kylychdaroglu, who promised to impose sanctions against Russia in case of victory in the elections of May 14.
Speaking at a rally in Istanbul, the Turkish President noted that Russia is one of the main allies of Turkey in the agricultural product market. “The same applies to the defense sphere and tourism. Where do you think up to 5.5 million tourists come to our country from Russia. What will you do with this? Really, you compensate for the instructions that you receive from the [US President Joe ] Biden? ” – said Erdogan.
According to the President of Turkey, Biden ordered: “Demonstrate Erdogan.” “I know this, and knows all the people. So on Sunday, voters will answer Biden and Biden,” the politician said.
At the same time, he attracted attention to the Kremlin’s reaction to Kylychdaroglu’s statements about the “intervention” of the Russian Federation in elected processes in Turkey.
“[Dmitry] Peskov said that this is [the words of Kylychdaroglu] – a lie. The Kremlin called for justification of attacks against the Russian Federation. However, he has no evidence. Kylychdaroglu was wriggling. He says that” he heard about this. There is no evidence, there is no evidence, there is no evidence, there is no evidence, there is no evidence. However, this is quite likely. How can you act like this? ”, Erdogan was indignant.
