"I said that publishing these allegations before they were proved would be wrong for our relations with Greece, and therefore they should be evaluated within the scope of the state," Yilmaz, who served as prime minister three times in the 1990s, was quoted as saying.
"Rekao sam kako bi objavljivanje tih optužbi prije njihove provjere bilo loše za naše odnose s Grčkom i da zato trebaju biti evaluirane na razini države", citirana je izjava Yilmaza, koji je u 1990-ima u tri navrata bio na dužnosti premijera.
