Turkey to build security belt along entire southern border

WORLD, Nov. 26 (YPA) – Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said that his country “will continue its struggle without stopping and no one has the right to expect us to tolerate terrorists,” stressing his determination to “eradicate terrorism from its roots.”

“We will establish a security belt along our entire southern border, from west to east as soon as possible,” Erdogan said, adding “we will continue our struggle without stopping, until we make Turkey among the first in the world in the field of defense industries.”

“No matter who terrorists collude with, Turkey will always hold them accountable for every drop of blood they shed,” Erdogan said at the ceremony.

“No one can teach lessons to Turkey, which is the only NATO ally that fought Daesh hand to hand and was victorious,” he continued, referring to the cross-border anti-terror operations in northern areas of Iraq and Syria, near the Turkish border.
