Turkish Presidency's Communications Director Fahrettin Altun calls on Sweden to immediately snap ties with anti-Türkiye terrorists and disrupt their operations, telling the Nordic country, 'We are not interested in words but rather in action'
Sweden needs to keep the promises, which it made in Madrid, to join NATO – of which Türkiye has been a member for 70 years.January 12, 2023Altun said while Ankara is fighting for regional peace, it is also fighting against global terrorism for the past 20 years and has paid a high price in the process.
Altun said Türkiye held several meetings with the Swedish government and told them to "stop the terrorist activities on your own land; break your ties with FETO and the PKK" even before the NATO discussion began. The Turkish communications director warned that European countries protecting terror groups would deprive them of the strategic, geopolitical and demographic opportunities that Türkiye will provide.
FETO is behind a long-running campaign to overthrow the state through the infiltration of Turkish institutions, particularly the military, police and judiciary. Türkiye sets rules Last June, Türkiye and the two Nordic countries signed a memorandum at a NATO summit to address Ankara's legitimate security concerns, paving the way for their eventual membership in the alliance.
