Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu is warning of “religious wars” coming to Europe in response to the re-election of Mark Rutte as Dutch Prime Minister.
Cavusoglu said Thursday there is “no difference” between Rutte and the losing right-wing candidate Geert Wilders, whom Cavusoglu referred to as a “fascist.”
"Where are you going, where are you taking Europe? You have begun to disintegrate Europe and take Europe to the cliff. Soon religious wars will begin in Europe," Cavusoglu said.
Wilders's anti-Islam Party for Freedom came in a distant second to Rutte's People's Party for Freedom and Democracy (VVD) with 20 seats, compared to 33.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said Thursday during a speech that Rutte had lost Turkey as a friend, even though he beat out Wilders.
土耳其外交部长恰武什奥卢对马克·鲁特再次当选荷兰总理作出回应，他警告说，“宗教战争”正来到欧洲。
恰武什奥卢周四说，鲁特和落选的右翼候选人威尔德斯之间“没有区别”，卡武斯奥卢称后者为“法西斯主义者”。
恰武什奥卢说，“你向哪里去，你把欧洲带向何方？你已经开始分裂欧洲，把欧洲带到悬崖边，宗教战争将很快在欧洲开始。”
威尔德斯的反伊斯兰自由党获得议会的20个席位，得票数排在第二，远远落后于鲁特的自由民主人民党（VVD）的33个席位。
土耳其总统埃尔多安星期四在一次讲话中说，鲁特已经失去了土耳其这个朋友，尽管他击败了威尔德斯。
