The foreign affairs expert for the German opposition Green Party, Cem Ozdemir, accused Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan of promoting terrorism in Europe.

Ozdemir said in statements to the German media network "Deutschland" published today, Friday, that "measures must be taken against all these inciters who continue to fuel Islamism for their own purposes motivated by cheap accounts." Turkish President Erdogan constantly pours oil on the fire, thus contributing to violence and terror. "

"In Germany, we need to deal differently with Islamic organizations," Ozdemir said. "These organizations should be fully established according to our constitution and become independent from foreign governments."

At least three people were killed in an attack in France on Thursday, and several others were wounded in the attack and the suspected perpetrator was arrested.

France announced the highest level of terror warning, and President Macron spoke of a "terrorist attack".
