“I would like to thank two countries, Germany and the Netherlands,” he added.
He said that the two countries have shown a constructive attitude after several days of talks with officials from both, confirming that as of last night that they will allow the return of “Daesh terrorists with their spouses and children.”
Soylu said that he expects the same cooperation from other countries in the fight against terrorism.
“We’re not a hotel or a guest house for terrorists from any country,” Soylu added.
