Erdogan: US Threats and Blackmail against Turkey Will only Hurt Itself
BBC.com
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan on Monday targeted the US, which has imposed sanctions on Turkey over the continued detention and trial of an American pastor, saying that Ankara will counter Washington within the limits of diplomacy and the law, Turkish Minute reports, referring the state-run Anadolu news agency.
''America has embarked on a wrong direction by choosing the language of threats and blackmail instead of dialogue for the solution of the political and legal problems between the two countries. This method, which supposedly aims to exact a toll on us [Turkey], indeed inflicts the biggest damage on America in the short and long term,'' said Erdoğan during a speech at the Turkish Parliament’s general assembly.
