Erdogan invited Macron to join the Organization of Turkish States

During the interview following the meeting of the European Political Community in Prague, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan invited his French counterpart Emmanuel Macron to join the Organization of Turkish States. Erdogan’s proposal sparked laughter from Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev and Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, who were standing nearby.

“Macron, join the union of Turkish states if you wish,” mocked the Turkish president (the video is available on Twitter by Ragip Soylu, chief editor of the Turkish Middle East Eye office).

Turkey, Uzbekistan, Azerbaijan, Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan are members of the Organization of Turkish States. The purpose of the organization is the strengthening of cooperation between the Turkish peoples of the member countries.
