Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan underlined on Thursday that the "vile" attack carried out in Ankara only further strengthens the country's determination to "eliminate terrorism."
Speaking at the BRICS summit in Russia, Erdogan thanked the international community for sending its condolences and the "solidarity they have shown."
Meanwhile, circling back to the conflict in the Middle East, he stressed that unless the "bloodshed" in the region is stopped, "there can be no justice, no peace, no development in the future."
