The so-called Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ ISIL) has "enjoyed Turkish money for oil for a very, very long period of time," said Moshe Yaalon, Israeli Defence Minister, at a joint press conference with his Greek counterpart Panos Kammenos in Athens, Tuesday.
Kammenos also expressed his distaste with the allegations. "The truth is that the more oil traded by Daesh - terrorists - moving through Turkey and trafficked through Turkey funding terrorism. It would be desirable, that Turkey decided to change its attitude, not to cooperate with terrorism, cannot proceed to acts which cause problems in the area, take advantage of the funding from the European Union and to allow for its own economic benefit stop refugee on the coast of Asia Minor, of course, with the consideration that the international community has given us so that we can transform the Mediterranean into a sea of peace, cooperation and stability," said the Greek defence minister.
He added that all parties involved "want Turkey to have good intentions and come to us for joint planning of counter-terrorism. All we want Turkey to have a behavior similar to international standards and international law. This requires changing attitude by Turkey."
Yaalon called on Turkey "to decide whether they want to be part of any kind of cooperation in fighting terrorism." He also added his view that "Turkey allowed jihadists to move from Syria and Iraq and back home as part of the Daesh terror infrastructure in Europe."
