Турецкий народ вышел на улицы в знак протеста против военного переворота

В пятницу вечером на улицы Турции по всей стране вышли тысячи людей в знак протеста против попытки государственного переворота вооруженными силами. К этому их призвал президент Турции Реджеп Тайип Эрдоган, который призвал выйти и защитить турецкую демократию.

Переворот начался поздно вечером в пятницу, когда танки заняли стратегические позиции в Анкаре и Стамбуле. В заявлении распространненом в эфире государственного телевидения, здание которого было захвачено военными, говорилось о формировании «Мирного совета», военного положения и комендантского часа. Однако, после обращения президента Эрдогана тысячи людей устремились на улицы в знак протеста против переворота. Турецкое правительство говорит, что в перевороте участвовали только часть военных, и они надеются взять ситуацию под контроль в течение нескольких часов.

Ukraine said it secured key interests after protracted negotiations, including full sovereignty over its own rare earths, which are vital for new technologies and largely untapped. Trump had initially demanded rights to Ukraine's mineral wealth as compensation for US weapons sent under former president Joe Biden after Russia invaded just over three years ago.
