Erdoğan said that any action or statement that would harm the People's Alliance should be responded to immediately. "WE WILL NOT REMAIN SILENT AGAINST STATEMENTS THAT WILL HARM THE ALLIANCE"Erdoğan said, "Let the dialogue ground continue, but we will not allow this ground to be abused or dragged into other debates. Our goal is to find common ground with the opposition on national issues. We cannot have any other partnership. Therefore, we will not remain silent against statements that will harm our alliance".
