Excluding Turkey from the first Philia Forum held among the Mediterranean countries is hostile, Turkish Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hami Aksoy said.
The meeting was held in Athens on Thursday, with attendance from Greece, Cyprus, Egypt, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia and United Arab Emirates. The participants said the forum aimed to “improve cooperation in security, healthcare, energy and environmental protections for the region from eastern Mediterranean to the Persian Gulf,” Deutsche Welle Turkish reported. France also attended the meeting as an observer.
“It is not possible for any forum not including Turkey, the key country in its region, and Turkish Cypriots, to constitute an effective and successful mechanism of cooperation and friendship with regard to the challenges in the region,” Aksoy said in written statement on Thursday.
