Gul is "very well acquainted with European and international affairs and I am confident he will succeed in bringing his country closer to the EU as well as further developing the role of Turkey as an important player in the international arena," he added.
Gul "vrlo dobro poznaje europske i međunarodne poslove i uvjeren sam kako će uspjeti približiti svoju zemlju EU i dodatno unaprijediti ulogu Turske kao važnog igrača na međunarodnoj sceni", dodao je.
