Turkey's activities in the Aegean and Eastern Mediterranean are based on its search for rights and justice, the nation's president said on Tuesday.
Speaking at the ceremony launching 2020-2021 judicial year at the presidential complex, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said some countries have sought to confine Turkey to its shores, calling it "a blatant injustice".
Dubbing fait-accompli attempts in Mediterranean examples of "modern colonialism," Erdoğan said all neighboring countries in the region had rights to benefit from resources.
