Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu stated that everyone should learn lessons from the past rather than trying to seek revenge and create hostilities, Daily Sabah reports.
The Turkish Prime minister welcomed his Australian counterpart at Cankaya Palace on Wednesday, where the two leaders held a joint press conference following their meeting and touched upon a number of issues including the 1915 events, the significance of the Battle of Gallipoli, the fight against ISIS and the relations between the two countries, the news outlet notes.
