President Erdoğan inaugurates Bursa City Hospital and Istanbul-Izmir Highway

 

President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan delivered a speech at the inauguration of Bursa City Hospital and Istanbul-Izmir Highway.

“Through the services, investments and reforms we have introduced over the past 17 years, we have turned Turkey into a country which truly practices its sovereignty,” President Erdoğan noted, and added: “We owe it to the place to which we have brought our country in the past 17 years that we still stand tall despite all the attacks, traps, threats and blackmails we have been faced with.”

Also touching upon Turkey’s anti-terror operations, President Erdoğan stated: “We will now enter east of the Euphrates. We have shared this with Russia and the U.S., because as long as the harassing fires from there continue, it is impossible for us to remain silent. We can be patient to a certain extent, but our patience has its limits.”
