Turkey annoyed by Mitsotakis’ speech to Congress – “They are targeting Ankara” Turkish media say

They emphasize that the indirect references on the Turkish provocations were applauded by the members of the Senate & the House of Representatives

Newsroom May 17 11:01

The Turkish media seem “numb” on the presence and speech of Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis in the US Congress, where both members of the US Senate and the House of Representatives were present.

The first publications comment on the indirect reports on the Turkish provocation, emphasizing that Mitsotakis’ statements were applauded by those present.

“Mitsotakis, who openly ignored the presence of Turkey in the region, described the two-state solution in Cyprus as “unacceptable” and was applauded by members of Congress”, Yeni Safak commented, posting a relevant excerpt.
