US, EU are not with Turkey in terror fight: Erdoğan

The United States and European Union are “not standing with Turkey” in the anti-terror fight, President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said at the D-8 Summit in Istanbul on Oct. 20.

“They say they are standing with us in the anti-terror fight when we meet bilaterally. But we don’t believe that. You are not with us. If you were with us, you would not protect them with your police forces,” Erdoğan said, referring to the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK).
