Erdogan: Europe didn’t keep its word

Europe didn’t keep its promise to cancel the visa regime for Turkish citizens, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said in an interview with German RTL TV channel, Trend reported citing Anadolu Agency.

Erdogan said that if Europe doesn’t keep its word, Turkey won’t accept Syrian refugees from the European Union.

“Turkey expected Europe to support it during the last military coup attempt,” Erdogan said. “European countries should have sent at least one representative to Turkey for support, as it was done after the terrorist attack in France.”

Commenting on the decision of Germany’s Constitutional Court to ban his televised address to a rally in Cologne, Erdogan said he “doesn’t respect this decision of the court.”

Earlier, European Commission’s President Jean-Claude Juncker said the EU may introduce visa-free regime for Turkey in the autumn of 2016, but in case if Ankara fulfills all the requirements.
