The cover design of “The Economist” made Erdogan furious.
According to al-Quds al-Arabi, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan reacted to the report and cover design of the new issue of The Economist.
He added in a tweet: “Those who are waiting for the attitude of Westerners to be able to call those who assassinate our police, military and civilians as terrorists, do not know.” There is another Turkey whose political, economic and military actions have deprived the world of terrorist groups. Now the story of Türkiye is strong on the ground and on the table.
Recep Tayyip Erdoğan announced that his country will never allow its internal policy to be guided and the national will to be threatened by the words on the cover of international magazines.
The President of Turkey said about the diplomatic successes that his country has achieved in recent years both in the field and at the negotiating table: We will bring all these diplomatic successes to a peak through the “Century of Turkey”.
Erdogan announced: Turkey has narrowed the field on terrorist groups through political, diplomatic and military measures. Despite its geopolitical position in the heart of three continents, Turkey has had a single-axis foreign policy for years, and thanks to our diplomatic efforts, we have implemented a foreign policy based on self-confidence.
Al-Quds al-Arabi announced: Erdogan’s statements on Friday were made in response to the words on the cover of the latest issue of the British Economist magazine, which called him a “dictator”. This western magazine attacked Erdogan in its latest issue with the title “The most important election event in 2023”.
