Recep Tayyip Erdogan
Forsake Alcohol, eat grapes instead!
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
Is Europe a home for an alliance of civilizations or is it a Christian club? If the former is true, then Turkey should be part of it.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan
Everyone should unconditionally accept that Israel is an indispensable element of the Middle Eastern mosaic.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan
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
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
