We don’t take Putin statements seriously, Turkish Premier says

Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu has said the Turkish government "does not take seriously" Vladimir Putin’s recent harsh statements, so he will not respond to theRussian president’s "undiplomatic and insulting" remarks in the same manner.

"Perhaps he’s reminiscing about his old KGB days. But the KGB is long gone. The era of Soviet-style propaganda is history. With every statement he makes, the world mocks it sarcastically. We cannot take it seriously," Davutoğşu told reporters while returning from this week’s trip to Brussels to attend a summit with eight EU leaders.

"[Putin’s] statements do not suit the nature of the modern world or Turkish-Russian relations. So instead of answering his statements in the same manner, I just smile. Taking his statements seriously would be an insult," he added.
