ANKARA, (ST)- Member of the Turkish Parliament from the opposition’s Republican People’s Party (CHP) Sezgin Tanrikulu has affirmed that President of the Turkish regime Recep Tayyip Erdogan has made Turkey a gateway for the entry and exist of terrorists, indicating that Erdogan’s regime has allowed the entry of tens of thousands of terrorists to Syria and it has transferred many of them to Libya.
In a TV statement on Wedneday, Tanrikulu said that Erdogan has flagrantly interfered in Syria. He has supported terrorist organizations and opened Turkey’s borders for tens of thousands of terrorist mercenaries who came from more than 80 countries to fight the Syrian government. He added that some of those terrorists are now leaving to Libya to serve Erdogan’s schemes and goals, noting that Ankara is paying a steep price to those mercenaries and it plans to grant them the Turkish citizenship after they return from Libya.
The Turkish MP criticized Erdogan’s colonialist and expansionist policies in Syria, Libya and the region, pointing out that such policies have left Turkey without regional friends.
The Turkish politician made it clear that Erdogan uses the Syrian refugee crisis to blackmail Europe.
