Davutoğlu spoke at Konya

Here is Davutoğlu's speech:

"In our belief and culture, our neighbors are more precious than siblings. We need you. I owe you and my nation a debt of gratitude. This victory does not belong to us but to our nation.

"Sorry but we have never turned our back on you, and will never do. Tens of thousands of our friends await us in Ankara in the cold. I will hug each one of you. God bless you for shouting your support to us.

"This is a day of victory for our democracy and people. May god bless you all. Today is a day of victory but day of humility too. The victory belongs to the nation. God shall put us into our nation's presence with solemnity.

"Hopefully we will serve well in the next four years and appear in your presence again in 2019. I say good night to you to meet our other brothers and sisters". (ÇT/TK)
