Zelensky criticizes Turkey for preparing new routes for tourists from Russia
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has criticized Turkey for preparing new routes for tourists from Russia at the same time as supporting Ukraine, calling it a double standard.
"Russian tourism has been bringing a lot of money to Greece for years. We think they make money on blood, and then they bring that money in. The situation is the same in Turkey. On the one hand, Turkey acts as an intermediary and supports Ukraine with important steps, but on the other hand, we see the simultaneous preparation of tourist routes specifically for Russian tourism. And if we want to have friendly relations, I, as President, must talk about it. This is not the way it should be," Zelensky said in an interview with the Greek ERT.
In his opinion, this is a double standard.
"It's not really fair, and that's why I'm drawing Turkey's attention to just such processes. It shouldn't be like that. You have to choose whether you are for the truth," he added.
