Turkish Interior Minister Ali Yerli Kaya, on the "X" platform (formerly Twitter), said that two policemen were slightly injured during

The attack, which took place near the headquarters of the Ministry of Interior, indicated that the attackers arrived at the scene on a commercial vehicle

Light.

The explosion occurred in a neighborhood that includes the headquarters of a number of ministries in addition to the parliament, which is expected to open its new session today in the presence of

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who was scheduled to give a speech during the event, according to Turkish media.

President Recep Tayyip Erdogan attended, on Sunday, a session of the Turkish parliament during the opening of the new legislative role, after

A few hours after the terrorist attack on the headquarters of the Ministry of internal affairs in Ankara.

In his speech to the members of the Turkish parliament, Erdogan said :

I salute all the citizens who voted for us in the last elections.

We faced a lot of difficulties and were subjected to coup attempts, which we managed to counter.

We must integrate and join hands within the parliament in order to be stronger.

The next period is suitable for the re-introduction of the draft new constitution.

We invite everyone to participate in the drafting of a new constitution of Turkey.

The recent earthquake cost Turkey 105 billion dollars.. It is a very large and heavy sum for a developing country.

The Russian-Ukrainian war caused economic problems in various parts of the world.

Terrorist organizations will not succeed in preventing us from our March and from achieving our goals.

The terrorists today tried to undermine the security of our country and tried to violate the security of our citizens and our country, and they failed.

We will not allow the establishment of terrorist organizations, and we will continue the fight against terrorism.

Turkey no longer expects anything from the European Union, which has not fulfilled its obligations to us.

The EU should correct its mistakes and not expect any concessions from us in the political, social and military sphere.

We don't need membership in the EU, because we have reached a stage where we are setting our own standards.
