Erdogan from the Albanian parliament calls: remove FETO, you risk the same as Turkey

 The President of the Republic of Turkey, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, from the PArliament, warned that Albania is in great danger from the FETO organization, which in his country is considered a terrorist one.

According to Erdogan, many members of FETO are hiding in Albania in various institutions and have a secret agenda and if no measures are taken they can organize a coup in our country as in Turkey, 5 years ago.

"The fight against the terrorist organization Feto, which attempted a coup in our country, attacked democracy, bombed the parliament, is one of our sensitivities. Unfortunately, many members of this organization continue to be in Albania and show their existence in education, health and religious institutions and in a part of the private sector. A true friend is one who does not hesitate to tell the truth even if it is bitter.

As in Turkey, here too the institutions related to FETO have hidden agendas, so you should have no doubt that when the time comes they will reveal the real face. As soon as you get rid of this poisonous structure that poses a threat to national security. If you do not react in time, it is inevitable that the attempts made by this structure in Turkey will be repeated in Albania. We have seen it and paid a heavy cost. We see it as our duty to warn our friends. "We expect Albania to take measures against FETO and not allow our relations to darken," Erdogan said.

The Turkish President also praised the cooperation between the two countries in all areas and Albania's role for stability in the region. He promised that the Turkish vaccine will be made available to the Albanian people very soon.

"Immediately after the proclamation of the Republic of Turkey, one of the first agreements was made with Albania and this agreement is called the eternal friendship agreement, revealing that our relationship is not between states, but also between people and communities. Albania is our neighbor in the heart, our relations are from 6 centuries. Our cooperation agreements have deep roots and are unwavering.

We have set up our relationship. We will continue to contribute to peace in our countries and the region. When Turkey and Albania join hands, there will be no problem that can not be solved. As long as we defend brotherhood and common goals and determination to lead cooperation. Together we will not allow this beautiful landscape to be ruined. Creating a permanent environment of peace in the Balkans, ensuring peaceful relations are a priority of Turkish policy. We follow the constructive role that Albania has played in the Balkans and for the recognition of Kosovo as an independent state, even by NATO allies who have made a contribution. Albania's role in the Balkans has been very constructive. I want to congratulate Albania on its temporary membership in the UN Interim Council. We will share experiences during the time we have had this task. The Turkish nation stands by the Albanian people with all possibilities. Turkey was the first country to offer assistance to Albania after the earthquake and during the coronavirus pandemic. "In the framework of the cooperation agreement, very soon the Turcovax vaccine will be made available to the Albanian brothers", said Erdogan.
