He said there were “disagreements” between Turkey and Iran over regional issues.
“There are disagreements between Turkey and Iran, but I do not want these disparities to affect good neighborly relations … sectarianism should not prompt us to become enemies, Islam must be our reference.
“… Look at what is happening in Iraq, Syria, Palestine and Libya … we have to overcome these problems and if we manage to do so, the Islamic world will be more powerful,” Erdogan added.
