The cause of the rebellion lies in the wide range of issues, believe in Russia
The “apology” supposedly brought by the President of Turkey Tayyip Erdogan Russia, as well as more active struggle of the Turkish government with terrorists in Syria could be one of the causes of discontent in the military, triggering a coup in Turkey, said the Chairman of Committee of Federation Council on defense and security Viktor Ozerov.
“Obviously, the reason for the coup lies in the wide range of issues. However, what brought Russia Erdogan apologize and change the course of Istanbul in the fight against terrorists in Syria became the last straw that broke the patience of the Turkish military,” he said.
Ozerov did not rule out that the coup could be related not only to the inner circle of Erdogan, but also a broader category of victims adopted by Erdogan’s decision to strengthen the fight against terrorists in Syria.
We will remind, the group of soldiers on behalf of the General staff of the Turkish armed forces on Friday announced the transition of power in the country into their hands and dismiss from it the Turkish leadership.
The rebels took to the streets of Ankara and Istanbul tanks shelled the Parliament building and also raised in the air helicopters, which opened fire on the people.
Following these allegations, the Prime Minister of Turkey Binali Yildirim said the attempted military coup in the country and that the government continues to work.
Reports of gunfire were also received from the area of the Ataturk airport in Istanbul.
Later, the national intelligence service of Turkey declared the failure of the military coup, to identify the arrest of a number of rebellious military. The Ministry of justice of Turkey has called the alleged organizer of the coup. Erdogan later said that the situation in Turkey is almost completely brought under control by the authorities.
According to preliminary data, during the coup attempt in Turkey killed nearly 200 people.
