ANKARA (AA) – Turkey has been campaigning since July 15 to inform other countries about the Fetullah Terror Organization’s (FETO) activities.
Turkey has made more than 6,000 official contacts through its missions and consulates abroad since the coup attempt, according to the figures published Monday on the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs' website.
Out of a total of 6,382 contacts, 36 official meetings were held at the presidential level, 42 at the prime minister level and 234 at the ministerial level.
At the parliamentary level, 696 interviews were conducted. Other high-level meetings amounted to 5,374.
At least 240 people were killed in the failed putsch, which the government has said was organized by the followers of U.S.-based preacher Fetullah Gulen.
Gulen is also accused of leading a long-running campaign to overthrow the Turkish government through the infiltration of state institutions, particularly the military, police and judiciary, forming what is commonly known as the parallel state.
