In addressing D-8 delegates in Istanbul, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said on Friday that D-8 resolved to help Turkey in fight against terror groups FETO, PKK.
Developing-8 organization needs to be strengthened with new members, Erdoğan emphasized inside his remarks.

Erdoğan added that the states of the D-8 -- an economic group consisting of eight emerging economies from the Muslim world -- are resolved to help Turkey fight terror groups such as Fetullah Terrorist Organization (FETO) and the PKK.

He said that especially on FETO and the PKK, D-8 members are determined to show solidarity and offer cooperation, including intelligence-sharing.

The FETO terror group and its U.S.-based leader Fetullah Gulen orchestrated the July 2016 defeated coup in Turkey, which left 250 people martyred and nearly 2,200 injured.
