SANLIURFA - Justice & Development (AK) Party Chairman and PM Recep Tayyip Erdogan said Sunday that the distance between his party and fundamentalism and violence is the same as the distance between night and day, ground and sky, and lie and truth.
"Our statements and acts are clear. Our path and policy are quite clear. As we did so far, we will continue to work to achieve the ideals of the Republic which is a democratic, secular, social state of law," Erdogan told his party meeting in southeastern province of Sanliurfa.
Erdogan said efforts to show his AK Party side by side with fundamentalism, fanaticism, terrorism and violence can be explained briefly as "unseriousness".
Erdogan reaffirmed that his party is against any kind of extremism, violence and fanaticism, and added that they have fought and will continue to fight extreme ends in every ground.
