Turkish president: "Those who are with us will win"

“Those who walk with us will win, and those who oppose us will lose,” Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said at the farewell ceremony of the fourth drilling vessel Abdulhamid Han, Report informs.

"One hundred thirty-five years ago, the first oil field was found in the city of Iskenderun. This time we will send the ship Abdulhamid Han to the well. This is the first step. With the prayers of our nation, our ship Abdulhamid Han will be successful. We expect good news from you. The ship will go to other wells as well. The work will continue until we find oil. The ships are in the Mediterranean Sea, in our territory. We will not ask permission from anyone for this. If they meet Abdulhamid Han at sea, they will remember the national struggle. Our duty to protect our rights from being trampled,” Erdogan said.

“We will continue our struggle with those who behave like a know-it-all from Paris. It is enough to look at the development of recent events. Those who walk together with us will win, and those who oppose us will lose,” he added.
