Türkiye Cumhuriyeti Dışişleri Bakanlığı 09.08.2019

FETÖ Terrorist Organization is a threat not only for Turkey but also for all humanity. It continues to pose a threat to the security of Brazil as it does for all other countries where it operates. Turkey, who put up a determined and sincere fight against all kinds of terrorism expects the same approach from its allies and the international community. In that regard, the fight against FETÖ should be as important and prioritized for Brazil as it is for our country. Turkey’s efforts towards maintaining and increasing its cooperation with the Brazilian Government in the fight against terrorism, particularly with FETÖ will continue. We expect the Brazilian Government to show the same sensitivity on this matter.
