Erdogan's statement came a day after Turkey temporarily closed its embassy in Tripoli and evacuated its personnel to Tunisia, due to security reasons, but left its consulate in rebel-controlled Benghazi open.
Erdoganova izjava usledila je dan nakon što je Turska privremeno zatvorila svoju ambasadu u Tripoliju i evakuisala osoblje u Tunis, iz bezbednosnih razloga, ali je ostavila otvoren konzulat u Bengaziju, koji je pod kontrolom pobunjenika.
