LAHORE, June 25 (TNS): President of Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) AND former Chief Minister of Punjab Mian Shahbaz Sharif has warmly greeted Tayyip Endogen for being elected as the President of Turkey again.
Turkey went for general elections on Sunday in which more than 50% of the electorate voted Mr. Endogen to run the country as the President for the second consecutive term. His closest rival, Muharrem Ince, has only got 30% votes.
Mr. Shahbaz Sharif, sensing the victory of Endogen, with whom he along with whole sharif clan is in a close relationship, has come out with warm words to greet and congratulate Mr. Erdogan and his party way before the counting of votes was yet to be finished.
Shahbaz Sharif on his twitter account has posted messages in which he said that Turkey has spoken today as Turkish people’s historic vote in favor of President Erdogan is a vote for his strong and committed leadership, is a proven track record of excellent public service, and stability.
“On the historic victory, I extend my heartfelt congratulations to President Erdogan, Prime Minister Binali Yildirim as well as to Justice and Development Party on behalf of the Pakistan Muslim League (N) as well as on my own behalf”. Tweeted Shahbaz Sharif.
He said that Turkey under President Erdogan and Justice and Development Party has undergone a phenomenal transformation. Its inclusion in the G20 club is a sign of its expanding economic prowess. “The Turkish people have never experienced such a high standard of living as they are doing today” he said and added that Turkey is a significant regional power whose position on affairs of the region and beyond has a huge bearing on the decision-making.
He said that President Erdogan’s agenda of social justice represents the aspirations of the Turkish people who voted overwhelmingly for a strong executive presidency for the continuation of internal reforms as well as Ankara’s expanding role in the world affairs. President Erdogan, no doubt, emerged as a staunch advocate of Muslims’ causes and those of the oppressed people around the world. His passionate espousal of the Kashmir, Rohingya Muslims and Palestinian causes has made him a popular leader across the Muslim world.
Shahbaz has hoped that post-election Turkey will continue to stay on the path of reform, economic development and democratization besides contributing meaningfully to the establishment of peace and stability in the region.
“I wish President Erdogan and his party best of luck as he embarks on a new phase of his public service”. Said Shahbaz Sharif
He also tweeted in Turkish language to congratulate Tayyip Erdogan for his historic victory.
