In his statement regarding the bloody terrorist attack in Kayseri, where many soldiers were martyred and wounded, TOBB President M. Rifat Hisarcıklıoğlu stated that they vehemently condemn this vicious attack and that those who hope to gain by terror would never reach their goal.

Hisarcıklıoğlu's message is as follows: 

“This morning in Kayseri, soldiers on leave in a public bus were targeted by a treacherous terrorist attack with vehicle based explosive. Unfortunately, our nation is struck once again by anguish.

This attack once again shows the savage, traitorous and inhuman face of terror. In the face of such treachery aimed at our unity, solidarity and the peace of our country, our nation will stand in unity and solidarity. We are confident that our government will call those responsible to account.

We condemn all terrorists and supporters, especially PKK, DAESH and FETÖ, which target the unity and solidarity of our country.

On behalf of the Turkish business community, I pray for the grace of Allah upon those martyred in the attack and extend our condolences to their families and our noble nation; I hope for the rapid recovery of the wounded.”
