No colonial power can deprive Turkey of energy resources: Erdoğan

"Turkey is determined to seek its rights in the eastern Mediterranean until the end," Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said in a speech in the capital Ankara on Wednesday. "No colonialist power or threat can deter our country from the oil and natural gas resources believed to be in the region," Turkish leader stressed.

Speaking during a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Wednesday, Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan stressed in his speech: "No colonial power can deprive Turkey of the energy resources said to exist in Eastern Mediterranean."
No threats can deter Turkey from seeking natural resources in the Eastern Mediterranean, Erdoğan said as making remarks related to the latest political developments.
Erdoğan added that Ankara expects actors in the region to take steps to de-escalate tensions. He also reiterated that Ankara wanted to solve the dispute through dialogue and diplomacy, rather than escalate tensions.

Turkey's struggle in the various fronts from Eastern Mediterranean to Libya is struggle for future, besides fight for right, Turkish leader added.
As it turned back the 1920 Treaty of Sevres, meant to box in and hold back the Turkish nation, Turkey will do the same to efforts to restrict it from energy resources near its shores, vowed the country's president.
"Just as it rejected the Treaty of Sevres 100 years ago, Turkey will not bow down to the modern Sevres being pushed on it in the Eastern Mediterranean," Erdoğan said in the Turkish capital Ankara.
Turkey has charged Greece, France, Egypt, and other countries with trying to illegally deprive it of Mediterranean energy resources and box it in, even though it has the largest coastline on the sea of any country.


In the wake of World War I, the Turkish War of Independence pushed back Sevres, a pact meant to liquidate the Ottoman Empire and all but abolish Turkish sovereignty, in favor of the 1923 Treaty of Lausanne.
Erdoğan added that Turkey's struggle on various fronts from the Eastern Mediterranean to Libya is a struggle for the future, besides a fight for the country's rights.
