ANKARA, June 25, (APP): EU bloc may face new breakups; Tayyip Endogen
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said Britain's planned departure from the European Union signaled the "beginning of a new era" and warned the bloc could face new breakups.
"I see this decision made by the people of Britain as the beginning of a new era for Britain and the EU," Erdogan said during a fast-breaking dinner late on Friday, in his first comments on the shock referendum result.
"Like the entire world, we expected a 'yes' result in the referendum but it turned out like that," he said.
Voters in Britain decided Thursday to leave the EU, raising questions over the future of the bloc.
