ANKARA, (ST)-Ufuk Soylemez, former state minister in the Turkish government, has stressed that the Turkish regime led by Recepe Tayyib Erdogan and the Justice and Development Party have committed crimes against humanity in Syria and Iraq, reiterating that Erdogan’s behavior and acts have nothing to do with Islam instructions.
In a statement to the Turkish “Ulusal Kanal” on Sunday, Soylemez said “the past few years have clearly proved the involvement of Erdogan, his family and his relatives in financial and moral corruption cases. They also proved that Erdogan and his supporters don’t have enough understanding of Islam.”
“Erdogan is politicizing Islam and exploiting it in implementing his personal projects and schemes,” Soylemez added.
He pointed out that Erdogan has destroyed the Turkish society with all its social and ethical values.
“Erdogan is now trying to undermine the secular system of the country to replace it by extremism-based one with close ties with the Saudi Wahhabi regime,” the former Turkish minister said.
He clarified that Erdogan’s authoritarian policy which oppresses political, media and academic opposition will lead to Turkey’s destruction.
