The migration treaty has put Europe's security in Turkey's hands, warned the Foreign Minister.

Those who attack the stability of Turkey, essentially undermine the security of Europe, warned the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade Péter Szijjártó at the session of the Council of Europe’s Committee of Ministers in Strasbourg, pointing out that the security of Europe currently depends on the stability of Turkey. According to the minister, the treaty between the EU and Turkey had to all intents and purposes placed the security of the continent in Ankara’s hands.

It is clearly the “fault and responsibility of Brussels that it has put Europe in such a vulnerable position”, but given that this is the situation we call on Europe’s institutions and politicians to “not make the situation even worse and weaken Turkey’s government and President with their criticism”, he continued.
