Relations between Ankara and Moscow would normalize, as the peoples of Russia and Turkey are not enemies, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan speaking to the heads of local administrations in Ankara.
He also added that he does not consider the Russian people as an enemy and expressed hope for the normalization of Russian-Turkish relations, Sputnik News reports.
"We are not enemies of the Russian people. For a country, which receives four million tourists from Russia [a year], it's impossible. Our trade reached $35 billion, and we wanted to bring this figure to $100 billion. It is a pity that Russia lost a friend like Turkey because of the two pilots. I hope that the steps taken to normalize relations will lead to a positive result," Erdogan said.
