Florence Parly's statements came during her interview with Radio France Inter Parly, where she confirmed that Turkey is part of NATO, but it has not behaved in this way for months.

Referring to the claim that Turkish warships highlighted their radar lights three times on a French frigate in June, the French minister said what was done against French ships in the Mediterranean was an uncomfortable maneuver.

French Defense Minister Florence Parly indicated that if the Turkish foreign minister was sincere about what he said a few days ago about the normalization of relations, "we are ready for that."
