Without Turkey’s help, Europe will be flooded by the migrant wave, while the freezing of negotiations with the EU will harm Europe more than it would Ankara, stated to Turkish media Turkish PM Binali Yıldırım.
According to the PM, “Europe is at a standstill at the moment so it is natural for Turkey to develop its relations with the East. And this is not a threat. We have to develop our relations in an economic and political aspect. And we are not making a choice – either the EU, or the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation.”
Commenting on the resolution of the European Parliament to freeze accession negotiations with Turkey, the PM pointed out that migrants will flood the EU unless Turkey stops them
“Cutting ties with Europe will harm Turkey. We admit that. But Europe will be hurt several times more, three to five times more. Without Turkey, the refugees will flood Europe and people there should understand that.”
