Erdogan warns about migrants, talks about Germany's history
Germany has no moral right to blame Turkey for mass killings, given the Holocaust committed by Nazi Germany and a genocide in Namibia perpetrated by the German Empire, he said."Germany! I am telling again: first, you have to give an account of the Holocaust. How you decimated, killed over 100,000 Namibians in Namibia, you should give an account of that," Erdogan said, according to the Daily Sabah.
As for Turkey's history, it is one “of mercy and compassion,” said Erdogan, who blamed the West for exploiting millions of African immigrants for cheap labor:
“Under the elegant pavements of Berlin, Paris, Brussels are lives, blood, efforts and elbow greases of Africans."
RT said that "despite the strained relations between Armenia and Turkey due to Ankara’s vehement denial of the genocide, Erdogan claimed Armenians are welcomed in Turkey."
The agency said that earlier on Saturday, Erdogan "threatened to stop helping Europe alleviate its refugee crisis if the EU continues to put pressure on Turkey for refusing to acknowledge the atrocities," saying, according to the Hurriyet newspaper, that his country “will never accept the accusations of genocide.”
“Either we find solutions to our problems in a fair way, or Turkey will stop being a barrier in front of the problems of Europe. We will leave you to your own worries,” Erdogan warned.
