5 April, 2021Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan attended the meeting of the Turkic Council via a video link. Addressing the meeting President Erdoğan said ‘The Turkic Council, which has completed its institutionalisation in 12 years, is one of the best examples of solidarity. We believe that with the participation of our Turkmen brothers the Turkic Council will gain power.’
President Erdoğan also underlined that the Turkish Cypriots are an integral part of the Turkish world and solidarity with the Turkish Cypriots to lift the unjust embargoes they have been subjected to for years is a matter of brotherhood.
‘The participation of the Turkish Cypriot people in the activities of the Turkic Council such as culture, education, science, and sports will help to alleviate the effects of the isolation and I believe we will carry the Turkish Cypriots to the level they well deserve. In addition, it is very important to develop the transport and travel opportunities within the Turkish world.’
