Turkey’s president has now stated that he has evidence that Russia is engaged in illegally purchasing oil from Isis militants in Syria.
Less than a day after Russia stated to have publicized evidence that Turkish trucks have been filling up with oil at its border with Syria – a claim the country rejects – its President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has declared that he has evidence that Russia is seemingly trading with Isis over oil.
“We have the proof in our hands. We will reveal it to the world,” stated Mr Erdogan, as per the Daily Mail.
The two countries have been locked in an increasing war of words after Turkey shot down a Russian war plane on November 24, after saying it had strayed into its airspace and had informed Russia about this.
Russia rejects its plane ever went into into Turkey’s airspace.
Yesterday, Russia said to have released evidence that the Turkish president and his family were benefitting from the illegal smuggling of oil from Isis-held territory.

Moscow’s Ministry of Defence revealed satellite photographs which they said display columns of tanker trucks loading with oil at an installation controlled by Isis in Syria, before crossing the border back into Turkey.
Anatoly Antonov, Russia’s deputy defence minister, stated: “Turkey is the main consumer of the oil stolen from its rightful owners, Syria and Iraq.
“According to information we’ve received, the senior political leadership of the country – President Erdogan and his family – are involved in this criminal business.
“In the West, no one has asked questions about the fact that the Turkish president’s son heads one of the biggest energy companies, or that his son-in-law has been appointed energy minister. What a marvellous family business.”
In today’s state of the nation address, Mr Putin yet again remarked upon the claims, stating: “We know that Turkey is filling its pocket and allows terrorists to earn money by selling oil stolen from Syria.”
Mr Erdogan had labeled Russia’s claims as “slander” and stated that he would stand down if the allegations were ever established.
He had also mentioned he did not want relations with Moscow to intensify.
