Direct attack on Cavusoglu

“There was a meeting between our president and Pence four or four before the meeting of the delegations of the two countries. And while Pompeo and I, along with other colleagues, were waiting in another office, we saw that Pompeo was uneasy, because the meeting dragged on and there were requests like “let’s go inside now.” I also told him that one is the President and the other is the Vice President. When they need us, they will call us. And I told him that it would be improper from a civility and protocol point of view to enter and warned him,” Cavusoglu said in a statement today, referring to an incident during Pence’s visit to Ankara many years ago, adding: “Now we understand why was he worried. These “pathetic images,” as he calls them, we have experienced here. A terrorist organization killed 251 of our citizens. I’m talking about FETO.”

“Because he (Pompeo) has a tweet that he then deleted. And from what he writes against our president, we understand that he himself supported the coup attempt. It is for this reason that the video alarmed him, because it shows how the coup began and how the Turkish people prevented the coup. He himself was so concerned that the Turkish people defeated the conspirators, which is why he uses this style. says so,” continued Cavusoglu, adding:

“It was they who upset the balance in relations with Greece and Cyprus. He himself, because he will be a candidate in the next elections, wants the support of the Greek lobby and that is why he is writing this. He told me that he wants to visit Istanbul, that he will visit the Patriarchate and that he would like to meet me there. And my answer was clear. We are not worried about a visit to the Patriarchate, but anyone who wants to meet me can come to Ankara and see me, and I will not go to his feet in Constantinople.”

“There is false information, exaggerations in what is reported, and this shows how dishonest and two-faced they were. With this person, we were forced to work with him to develop a relationship. We have seen how hypocritical and two-faced he is.

I think he wrote this book to start his presidential campaign. That’s what I believe. There is false information on the claims you mentioned, and I say this in diplomatic language, you can also lie. There is exaggeration and there is misinformation, as supporting terrorism is a criminal offense in the US and he is trying to avoid it,” the Turkish Foreign Minister added.

Fire and from Kalina

The reaction of the Turkish president through him was just as aggressive. Ibrahim Kalin.

“While the meeting lasted and did not end, Pompeo had a nervous breakdown on the street. We found out later. It’s strange, your VP is in a meeting and you put pressure from outside and say “I’ll come in” myself, while there was no request from the VP, he tried to enter and put pressure on the door. We found out later,” Ankara’s spokesman said characteristically, and he, in turn, accused the former US foreign minister of bias in favor of Greece, tying the current Biden administration as well.

“In the book, he states that he is proud of the development of relations with Greece and that no one has supported Greece so strongly since the time of Kissinger. Thus, the US is not neutral among NATO allies. We knew that the US supports Greece and supports it, but he admitted it and we record it. Worst of all, he has shown that by talking about peace in the Aegean, he causes tension between the two allies when he clearly supports only Greece. And today, the Biden administration is not much different in its attitude. On some issues, say the US government, the deep state, the policies that Obama started and continued by Trump, now the Biden administration is doing it. Then we are asked, “what is the reason for the tension between Turkey and the United States.” Pompeo’s confession shows that it’s not about us, but about the United States.”
