Former Turkish FM: Erdogan’s Government’s Stance on Syria a “Scandal

ANKARA- Former Turkish Foreign Minister Shukri Sina Goral has affirmed that the government of the Justice and Development Party supports sectarian incitement in the Middle East through its open involvement in the process of arming al-Qaeda terrorists and sending them to fight in Syria and through its support for the terrorist groups in Iraq to topple Iraqi legitimate government.

In a statement published by the Turkish “Yourt” newspaper, Goral described as a “scandal” the current Turkish government policies and stances towards the crisis in Syria and the whole situation in the Middle East.
“Turkey’s stance on Syria and the Middle East is matchless in the history of the Turkish foreign policy,” Goral said.

He stressed that Erdogan’s government looks at terrorism as a legitimate tool and this was evident in its anti-Syria policies.

“The Justice and Development government has drowned Turkey in the quagmire of terrorism through being a part in the crisis in Syria and through providing full support to al-Qaeda-linked Jabhet al-Nusra group which kills and terrorizes people in Syria and destroys the country’s infrastructure.

“The Turkish citizens are the ones who pay the price for the Turkish government’s irresponsible pro-terrorism policy,” Goral said.

In another context, Kemal Kilicdaroglu, Leader of the Turkish Opposition Republican People’s Party has stressed that reports by the Turkish media regarding the plan of the Development and Justice Party to prepare security reports against officials and MPs in the People’s party, indicate that Turkey, under the leadership of the Justice and Development Party, has been transformed into a police state with its Prime Minister Recepe Tayyib Erdogan as a dictator who seized decision-making positions in the country.

Kilicdaroglu said Erdogan has tasked the state security apparatus to monitor the movements and acts of members of the Republican People’s Party instead of monitoring the security and stability of the country.
