Turkish Foreign Minister Laments Saudi Aid To Egypt
MEP: The Turkish foreign minister Mevlut Cavusoglu slammed Saudi financial assistance to the Egyptian military junta during a phone call to his Saudi counterpart Adel al-Jubeir, lamenting Riyadh’s fresh financial aid package to Cairo reportedly worth $ 1 billion.
Mr. Cavusoglu praised the brotherly relation between Turkey and KSA which is based upon robust and perpetual foundations, calling for the urgent need to revise the attitude towards those conspirators who seek to destabilize Turkey.
Pointing to the Egyptian interventionist and hostile attitude regarding the failed coup attempt in Turkey, Mr. Cavusoglu explained that the regime in Cairo came to power with sheer violence, ignoring democracy and will of the Egyptian people and it is quite natural that the ruling junta in Egypt intends to exploit Saudi financial aid against the Islamic and democratic values in other Islamic countries.
