The talks between Ankara and Damascus continue through
intelligence agencies and Türkiye is ready to work with the regime
on the return of Syrians to their country, Foreign Minister Mevlut
Cavusoglu said, trend reports citing daily news .
“If the Regime acts realistically, we are ready to work together
in the fight against terrorism, the Political process and the
return of Syrians. It is unthinkable otherwise,” Cavusoglu said
addressing the budget talks at the parliament.
Ankara follows the same policy in Iraq, he said and added,“We
offer both Baghdad and Erbil to make cooperation in the fight
against terrorism. We convey the same messages to the new Iraqi
government. If our interlocutors listen to our calls, we will march
together and fight against terrorism together.”
If Ankara's calls on the issue of the fight against terrorism
remain unanswered, then Türkiye will paddle its own canoe, he
added.
Cavusoglu said that Türkiye did not follow a static and
unchanging policy, the government did whatever the interests of the
nation required under the current conditions.“We head to the field
if the negotiation doors were closed,” the minister said referring
to Türkiye's cross border operations. But if the conditions were
suitable for negotiation, they negotiated and, the recent
normalization policies were a result of this reality, he added.
Underlining that Ankara always wanted problems to be resolved
through dialogue, Cavusoglu emphasized that this is not something
that depends only on Türkiye, and that its interlocutors should be
ready and that regional and global conditions should be suitable
for this.
Stating that the issue of the Aegean islands is“national
policy,” Cavusoglu called on the opposition and said,“Let's not
try to corner each other in a way that will benefit Greece. Let's
not give a trump card to Greece. So, let's evaluate national
policies together.”
