We have agreed on deepening our cooperation and furthering our relations: Erdoğan

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and President Donald Trump of the U.S. held a joint press conference following their tête-à-tête and the meeting between the delegations.

Speaking at a joint press conference with President Trump of the U.S., President Erdoğan said: "We have agreed on deepening our cooperation and furthering the Turkish-American relations on a strong and healthy basis. In line with our deep-rooted alliance, we are determined to turn a new page in our relations."

"We are determined to turn a new page in our relations"

"We held comprehensive and sincere talks with Mr. President concerning the issues on our agenda," President Erdoğan stated, and noted: "We have agreed on deepening our cooperation and furthering the Turkish-American relations on a strong and healthy basis. In line with our deep-rooted alliance, we are determined to turn a new page in our relations. We have affirmed with Mr. President our mutual will on combatting terrorist groups that threaten our national security. We have underscored the importance of continuing our joint fight against DAESH."

Highlighting that Turkey has taken a new and significant step in the fight against terror with the operation that it launched on October 9, President Erdoğan added: "With this operation, our country has dealt a heavy blow to PKK/YPG’s separatist agenda in Syria. We believe that with our agreement on October 17, we have seized a great opportunity for the deepening of our cooperation in Syria."

"We can work together to bring peace and stability to Syria"

Stressing that Turkey continues to abide by the agreement with the U.S. in order to find a lasting solution to the Syrian crisis, President Erdoğan said: "We see that some circles, which sympathize with terrorist organizations, are disturbed by this and seek to muddy public perception with misinformation and to deteriorate our relations. What is more, they strive to raise new problems, which will undermine our bilateral relations, by even distorting historical issues."

President Erdoğan went on to say that Turkey and the U.S. can work together to completely finish DAESH off and bring peace and stability to Syria, adding that the U.S.’ most reliable partner with which it can achieve this goal is Turkey.
