Our population, experiences and economic strength must reflect more on European politics, PM Erdogan says

ISTANBUL (A.A) - Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said Saturday that Turkey's population, experiences and economic strength had to be reflected more on European politics. Speaking at the "World Turkish Entrepreneurs Congress" organized by the Foreign Economic Relations Board at the Lutfi Kirdar Congress and Exhibition Center in Istanbul, Erdogan said that Turkey had to be more influential in European politics. We need to fight against xenophobia and racism as a single heart, Erdogan said. As a government making reforms and trying to harmonize Turkey with the EU acquis, we expect our entrepreneurs (in Europe) to extend support to this process in the countries that they live in, Erdogan said. Our entrepreneurs should have no concerns about integration. Make efforts to help our citizens integrate with the societies that they live in. However, never make concessions from your brotherhood, Erdogan also said.
