Message from President Erdoğan to Trump

In this context, Donald Trump will take over the office again after 5 years with the swearing-in ceremony to be held.

In a process closely followed by both America and Turkey, the thoughts of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan have also become a subject of curiosity.

Speaking at a joint press conference held with Prime Minister of the Slovak Republic Robert Fico, President Erdoğan answered questions from journalists.

When asked by a journalist about Donald Trump's reference to him as 'my friend,' President Erdoğan replied, "The continuation of our friendship from the first term exactly as it was is very important to us," and announced that he would hold further talks with Trump in the coming period.

President Erdoğan's statements regarding Trump are as follows:

"I HAD A CONVERSATION WITH HIM THE DAY AFTER HE WON THE ELECTION"

The continuation of our friendship from the first term exactly as it was is very important to us. I had a conversation with him the day after he won the election. Now, we have also held an interim meeting during this period.

Since he insists that 'I will end the Russia-Ukraine war,' we will naturally do what is necessary for Turkey in this regard. Because we are not in favor of wars in the world. As Turkey, we are in favor of peace.

"I WISH FOR TRUMP'S SECOND TERM TO BE BENEFICIAL FOR ALL OF HUMANITY"

We believe that with this peace, the solidarity between countries in the world should continue. Everything that is needed is in peace. Nothing can be achieved through war, and we must resolve this as soon as possible.

We will put these issues on the table in the meetings we will hold with Mr. Trump and take our steps accordingly. I wish for Trump's second term to be beneficial for all of humanity.
