Turkey says France should apologise for making “false claims” about naval incident in Mediterranean

United States Headlines News

United States Latest News, United States Headlines

Turkey has dismissed French allegations as"groundless," insisting its vessels only observed the warship. It has accused the French ship of a"high-speed and dangerous manoeuvre."

France says its frigate Courbet was “lit up” three times by Turkish naval targeting radar on June 10 when it tried to approach a Tanzanian-flagged civilian ship suspected of involvement in arms trafficking. The ship was being escorted by three Turkish warships. The Courbet backed off after the confrontation.

“Instead of engaging in anti-Turkish activities and such leanings, France needs to make a sincere confession,” Cavusoglu said. France has repeatedly accused Turkey of violations of the UN arms embargo on Libya and branded the Turkish government as an obstacle to securing a ceasefire in the North African nation, which Turkey firmly denies. Turkey accuses France of supporting Libyan warlord Haftar and therefore acting as a roadblock to peace.
