Ankara, June 16, IRNA -- Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Tuesday acknowledged diplomatic significance of Tehran Declaration on the fuel swap.
Erdogan’s remarks in the parliament was aired live on different TV channels.
"The Tehran Declaration was not in contradiction with the demand made by the US President Barack Obama in his letters to me and Brazilian president," he said.
Criticizing the US efforts to impose sanctions on Iran, he said Turkey and Brazil gave negative vote to resolution passed by the United Nations Security Council.
Erdogan said that Turkey and Brazil believe in international peace and security and that the dispute on Iranian nuclear program must be resolved through political means.
Criticizing the dual standard polices of the western countries concerning Iran’s peaceful nuclear program, he described them as opportunists cooperating with the non-democratic regimes and that they raise democracy for their own interests.
“What are you doing in Iraq and Afghanistan? Who is responsible for hundred thousands of casualties and hundred thousands of widows in the war-torn country? Do you think that you will be the final winner?,” he questioned.
Condemning the inhuman and dastard attack of the Zionist regime to Gaza flotilla, he referred to Zionists media and some Turkish media affiliated to the Zionists and said they try to justify the piracy on flotilla and threaten the Turkish government or put pressure on it, but to no avail.
The Turkish people do no heed such futile efforts, he said./end
