Recent
unilateral steps taken by the US have shown that relations between Turkey and
the EU, namely France, are more important than ever, says Turkey's Finance
Minister Berat Albayrak in Paris.

Turkey wants to take its relations
with the European Union to a new phase in a period when its trade with the bloc
is more important, Finance Minister Berat Albayrak said on Monday.
Speaking at a news conference with
his French counterpart Bruno Le Maire in Paris, Albayrak said recent unilateral
steps taken by the United States have shown that relations between Turkey and
the EU, namely France, were more important than ever.
Albayrak also said France and Turkey
shared the same position against the one-sided decisions by the United States

regard.
Recent steps taken by the United
States against Turkey are politically motivated and could serve to ultimately
bolster regional terrorism and the refugee crisis, he said.
