Bolu Mayor Tanju Özcan shared a video of the moment of thanks from the meeting on his social media account and expressed the following reaction:

"LOOK AT THIS DISGRACE

Italian Prime Minister Meloni says that migrants coming from Turkey have dropped to zero, she expresses her thanks, and our President applauds.

Shame on you; you have turned us into Europe's migrant dumping ground, and you are applauding because you received a thank you for it.
