“Because they said you can not do it, we reopened the closed Varosia in Cyprus, with the will of our president. Do you know what we did when we were busy with the pandemic? We turned Hagia Sophia into a mosque, something they held over our heads for years like Damocles Swords, threatening us with a disturbance of peace and vowing not to let us convert it. I say this so that they understand and be ready for what we have to do “, he stated characteristically according to SKAI.

He also referred to the issue of the Eastern Mediterranean and the exploitation of natural gas, noting that it belongs to the Turkey.
