"For God's sake, save yourself from the sovereignty of America and Russia, get out of their [gravitational pull]," Kemal Kilicdaroglu told his party's lawmakers in parliament.

"Can the presidents of the four countries [Turkey, Iran, Iraq and Syria] not come together? Can they not solve their own problems?," Kilicdaroglu asked, adding regional peace could not be achieved in the company of "imperialist powers".
