Ankara. Speaking at an electioneering rally, Turkish Prime Minister
Recep Tayyip Erdogan said that everyone, who tried to harm the Bosnians
would face at least 100 million Turks against them, Deutsche Welle
reported in its programme for Macedonia.
"I swear in Allah that anyone, who dares to harm the Bosnians, will
face 100 million Turks," Erdogan remarked.
In his words, in the past the Ottoman Empire handed its brothers to
Austria-Hungary and it will never forget itself about it.
"That is why no one should be surprised if a Turkish military ship
enters the Bosnian port of Neum," the Turkish Prime Minister said.
Erdogan's statement led to wild reactions among the politicians.
Republika Srpska President Milorad Dodik said that the Bosnians were
living freely in the entire Bosnia and Herzegovina, while Erdogan's
statement was interference in the home affairs of the country.
Member of the Presidency Nebojsa Radmanovic, on the other hand, said
that Erdogan's statement was "the most brutal, hardest and most direct
insult and threat at the Serbs and Croats in Bosnia and Herzegovina".
Turkish Ambassador to Belgrade, Mehmet Kemal Bozay, however, claimed
that the Turkish Prime Minister had never made such a statement.
