In other words, the bar should be maintained at the level of a pluralistic and participatory democracy.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan
There exists an unmistakable demand in the Middle East and in the wider Muslim world for democratization

The purpose cannot be creating self-styled democracies, but rather encouraging steps that are conducive to establishing democratic rule at universal standards. Obviously, this would be a formidable journey
Recep Tayyip Erdogan
We are seeing with great grief that America remains quiet as Turkey struggles against terrorism. Because there were promises given to us, and they need to be kept. If not, we can take care of our own business.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan
The advanced levels which the democratic world has attained at the end of lengthy processes may have created the perception in the region that democracy is a distant concept this perception can be addressed

Recep Tayyip Erdogan

Recep Tayyip Erdogan
I am aware of the thesis that the United States has long since invested exclusively in stability and this has obviated democratic transformation in the Middle East.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan
If we look at history, we will see that regimes which persecute [their people] do not remain standing.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan
Turkey has put up a fight against the powerful nations of the world. The crusader mentality attacked us abroad. Inside, their lackeys attacked us. We didn't succumb. As a nation, we stood strong.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan
Turkey's path toward Europe started back in 1959, almost 50 years ago. But we have been pushed to the side ever since. Despite all the hurdles we will not deviate from our course towards Europe - even by one step.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan
If during their education our youths become alienated from their language, history, ancestors, culture and civilization, it means there is a very serious educational problem there.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan
I take the debate on the method of promoting democracy seriously
Recep Tayyip Erdogan
Even as we ought to accept that each country would progress with a different method and speed toward that goal, the standard for the expected end-state should not be lowered.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan
We are against the majority tyrannizing the minority. But we are definitely against the minority tyrannizing the majority.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan
If the people allow something to happen, it's the right thing.
