"LET THESE GENTLEMEN LEAVE, LET THEM PROTECT THE BORDER GATES"

In his speech in front of the building, CHP Deputy Mahmut Tanal stated; "I am the Deputy of Şanlıurfa. There is 'foot-and-mouth disease' in all regions outside of Thrace. This disease comes from Iran and Syria. Let these gentlemen leave, let them protect those border gates. Our borders are like a sieve. Our border gates are not passable by terrorists or smugglers."
