Erdogan that all the countries in its region had confidence in Turkey and Turkey tried to use such trust for the foundation of regional peace.
Turkish prime minister said on Wednesday that all the countries in its region had confidence in Turkey and Turkey tried to use such trust for the foundation of regional peace.
Speaking at a conference at the International Strategic Research Organization (USAK) on the changing balances in the world and Turkey's growing global importance, Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said that all countries should be treated the same regarding the nuclear weapons issue.
Erdogan said the notion of justice would be harmed if some countries were warned and others were tolerated on the nuclear issue.
"If you have a nuclear weapon, you cannot tell another country not to develop it. In order to demand such a thing, such country should first destroy the weapons in its hand," he said.
